Closed for Judging

From Head to Toes Writing Contest

Hello everyone! The contest is now officially CLOSED!

Thank you to everyone who sent in last minute entries and worked down to the wire to finish up their stories! I've got a lot of thoughts whirling in my head, but I'll save those until I announce the winners. ^^ So for now, give yourself a well-deserved pat on the back for making it this far with me and get some rest!

Final reminder to those who have been granted extensions: you know when your extension dates are, so please finish by then! I will not be sending you reminders or updating this contest thread until the announcement of the winners, so it is up to you to stay on track and finish on time! Your entry must be marked COMPLETE by 11:59PM PST of your respective extension date in order to qualify for judging.

Just some final housekeeping before I go to bed. If you haven't unchecked the Subscriber Access Only on your entry, please do so now! I will be contacting those who haven't in the morning/early afternoon, but to save me the time and energy, please have it done beforehand! I will also be doing a final sweep of the entry list and crossing off any entries that do not qualify. If you feel that I have crossed off your entry in error, please let me know so that I can rectify my mistake immediately! I will also be reorganizing the entry list (rip taoris lmao), so it's a bit easier for me to sort through. The Best Of karma prizes will be re-added to the prize list when all of the extension dates have passed.

If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please contact me via the comment box, my wall, or private messages. I respond to all messages within 24 hours. And if you'd also like to be a karma donator, please contact me so we can discuss the specifics. I will repay you for your generosity!

If you were unable to join this contest, finish your story, or you want to join another contest and possibly win more merch, then head on over to Shoes of a Unicorn Writing Contest! :D The fun is never-ending there (actually tho) and I'd love to read more from you all! ^^

Anyway, that's it! Once again, thank you so much to everyone who participated and supported this contest! I really appreciate it and I hope you all had fun writing stories this past year! ^^ Go ahead and read everyone's entries to support each other! :D I'll be back in January with the final ranking list (and probably a brand-new contest giveaway bc wynaut). Until then, have a wonderful holiday season and see you in 2018! :)

Chapter 25: Thank you so much for hosting! It's been a hell of a ride and a hell of an inspiration for me, personally as a writer, and I really appreciate all that you've pulled through with, even through everything that's happened lately. So thanks for all the hard work and dedication you've put into this contest, and all the positive vibes you've created as well.

Congratulations to all the winners too!

Chapter 25: first of all, i'd just like to say thank you so much for hosting this contest. you've been having an extremely rough time and i'm so happy you're feeling well enough to announce winners. everyone has been taking jonghyun's passing really hard. it took me a solid three days to realize it was real and not some news source's sick, awful prank.

i'm really grateful i was able to place eighth despite the fact that everyone was confused af in my comments. i was super nervous that it was horrible or something. congrats to all of the winners!!

Chapter 25: Thank you so much for hosting this contest! This is my first time participating in one and you made it as enjoyable as possible for me with the list of prizes and updates. honestly speaking I have been on writer's block for months ever since Pretend was published but somehow reading this today really made me wanna just sit down in front of my laptop and quickly start on my half-completed stories. I guess it's the motivation to do better :) anyway, thank you again!

Chapter 25: I've been quietly supporting this contest, but I just wanted to drop by and say:
Congrats to the winners! (I see 2 fics I enjoyed reading myself 8D) And also *파이팅* ne?
It takes a lot of courage to write something so personal, and I sympathise. ><
Let's hope Pearl Aqua Dreams helps towards us Shawols getting though this emotional time.

Chapter 25: Ahhh, I’ve never actually participated in a contest before - I always said to myself ‘maybe I’ll do that!’ and then I never did. But I’m glad that wasn’t the case this time.
Thank you for doing this contest, and thank you so much for your message on Jonghyun. I’ve only just been able to start reading stuff again so I can only imagine how hard it was for you. But you did it! You read all the entries and you finished this contest, that’s as much of an achievement as people finishing their stories. And on the topic of finishing stories... I finished one! Granted it was a one-shot but I finished it! I am glad that I found this contest 24 hours before the deadline... because it gave me a push that I needed. But next time I’ll definitely look towards joining before the deadline hahaha
No matter what my ranking, I’m happy with myself for writing something so thank you for helping me to do that :)
And I’m happy with my ranking too!
So thank you, again, for doing this competition and well done to you for doing it!
Congratulations to all the winners c:
