Violently Murdering Writer’s Block [Contest]

--

Hey, it’s Orii. You probably don’t know who I am, but that won’t stop me from saying my name like it’s important and vaguely recognizable.

Hey. It’s Orii.

Anyways, I am having some terrible writer’s block at the moment. In an effort to distract myself from this and various other issues that have been plaguing my messed up little excuse for a life, I’ve decided to hold a contest. Sometimes seeing other people’s creativity flourishing gives you inspiration of your own.

That’s what I think, anyways.

Here are the basics; it’s going to be a pretty simple contest:

One—I’ll start this thing when I have at least five people signed up for it. There’s not going to be a maximum number of contestants allowed mostly because I think I’ll be lucky to get five. After the first round has officially started, no matter how many people are signed up, there will be no new contestants allowed in the contest.

Two—Each round I will be presenting the contestants with a challenge that they must use when writing their stories. Entries will be scored based on the use of the prompt, originality, and the over-all quality of the writing. For the sake of simplicity, I will be the only judge.

Three—This might make me sound like a whiny child, but the thing I hate most in the world right after rude drivers (people in front of you who drive slow and people who drive so close behind you it’s like they’re trying to get into your backseat) are people who drop out of contests randomly and mess it up for everyone else. (Actually, there’s a longer list of things I hate in between those first two, but naming all of them would take too long.) I have a huge pet peeve about people who join contests and then disappear. Now, I realize that this is the internet and you probably have a list of things more important than me that will rival my list of Everything I Hate About the World Right Now (and believe me that one is pretty long), but if you’re in the contest and for some reason you decide you want to not be in the contest, all you have to do is let me know and everything will be cool. I won’t even yell at you if you DM me and tell me why you're dropping out. That will take all of two seconds and save everyone a lot of confusion.

And that’s about it. I realize that after reading this you will most likely come to the conclusion that I am insane and/or just too weird to deal with, and I recognize those as legitimate reasons to get away from this page as fast as you can and head for the metaphorical hills.

If you want to stay though, the winner gets bragging rights, a shiny medal (of the imaginary/ interwebs sort) and a premium doll if they want it. Plus, you get a good feeling inside knowing you beat all those other losers in some random contest on the internet. (and who doesn't want that?)

So, here is the sign-up list. If you would sign it, that would make me smile. And if you don't, I don't really care.

1) Rhii

2) Peggie

3) saikalera_dookie129

4) TechnoShock

5) HereButNeverRemembered

6) Rowling_on_a_River

There are still spots open if anyone else wants to join. Round One begins on Saturday the 21st.

Good Luck.

I would sign up, BUT today is the day the round starts and I have too much school work to do over the next three weeks. I wish that I could write for your contest.

I wish you all the best!

If you wantt to know why people probably don't like me, just check my old posts...

I don't really want to explain it, it's nothing really. I think everyone should just forget about it.

Hi there,

Mind if I join? I'm fairly new, but I can't resist a challenge to beat writer's block (my NaNo's totally dead, myess).

Hi, Julie.

Why do people dislike you?

-sighs-

Yeah, Orii, you so should've known. Honestly. As if we wouldn't!

Lol. I should have expected Rhii and Peggie to be the first two people to sign up for this. ^____-

There are still spots open for this contest, but we're starting round one this weekend whether or not anyone else signs up. It'll just be a really short contest. But that's okay. Less is more. Or something.

If you would let me join, I will.

I'd love to compete against all these lovely, tender young people.

I know in general people don't like me in this virtual arena, but everyone is odd in thier own way, ya know...

My name is Julie, well, it is and isn't. I chose it for myself, so, call me it?

I have all the work in the world on my shoulders at the moment, but if I could enter your competition, it would give me something else to do...*Nervous Laugh*...I'd love to try...

DM me....

And I promise I'll try not to drop out, I'd rather do a crap entry and get kicked out just for the sake of continuing, that's what people should do if they want to leg it.

I'm at your judgement.

DM me.

I'm so joining... and just for the heck of feeling semi-important; Hey, Orii. I'm Peggie. =]

Of course, you already knew THAT. But still. Is it fair if I join, seeing as I'm on Post Script? Personally, I think it is, but really...

So, can I? I have time on my hands.

Sure.

School is pretty quite on the homework front at the moment. I'll have a go.

I'm in a particularly good mood after winning Enterprise Day
