PROMPTS
Now, this is not a contest to see who can plagerize the best. Rather, who can capture the essence of the movie, while putting their own flare on it. All of the prompts are subject to change. For instance, it's quite acceptable to change Boy Meets Boy to Girl Meets Girl or Girl Meets Boy. You must come up with an original title for your story(not the title of the film), but all films can be changed to , Yuri, OCxOC, OCxIdol or IdolxIdol. You're free to use any characters you want.
Minimum word count is 1,000 to however much you want. But,I pray, make the length relevant to the piece of writing.

RUBRIC
Plotline:
Is it original(loosely graded, nothing's orginal these days)?
Is it paced nicely? Not too slow? Not too fast?
Are there any good twists?
Characters:
Do your characters develop throughout the story?(exception; boy meets boy)
Is the development well written? Not too drastric?
Do your characters compliment each other well?
Grammar:
Is there awkward phrashing, sentencing, etc?
Is your vocabulary broad?
I understand some might not speak English as a first language. So, betas are allowed. But, no co-authors. Happy writing. 8D
