As I promised to all of you before, I open it up my contest which is about writing. Subject could be anything as long as defined as logically. I plan this contest lasts in one month. So it will be a long contest.

Template:

Name of the story: (might be blank till the title deadline ended)
Type of the story: (you know science fiction/fantasy etc)
Short or long: (Short stories are included in at least 20 or 30. The others are included in long stories)
Subject: (might be blank till the subject deadline ended)

First deadline will be about the titles for who participates in the contest. Starts from today and lasts after a week. For another deadlines, the other will be explained later. So what are you gonna do is to inform by filling out the template and that means you are joined. Start working on your stories.

Right, don't count me stupid, but I have some questions: Does it matter how long the story is?? Can I just post it here?? It doesn't matter at all what this story is about??

I think that's it.

No it does not matter how long it is. I have classified. You are allowed to write on any subject. In short, You write a story about any subject you wanted to write as long as it is logically told to me. About posting your story, you are writing on your computer and upload it here. When I download it on my computer, I should be able to read your story. I hope I answered to all your questions.

Short or long: Not extremely long, but not too short.

Okay, before I enter: approximately how long will we have to write the actual story? I have something in the back of my mind, but it'll be pretty long and may take me a while (I work all day and get home exhausted, so I haven't had much time for writing).

This contest will open for long. If you wanna join, fill out the template that I introduced in my first post. Secondly, if you can not write it, you may not join because you need some time to think about it. I can make the deadline a little bit longer for you if you would like but that is all I gotta do. Participating to this contest should be fun not a job, lastly. The contest will be opened for a very long time. If you wanna write something, you will do it.
