The Manipulator. ¦ » Writing Contest [winners announced]

Description

The 
Manipulator
“is one who can turn nothing into something,
the one who can make you believe anything,
the one who can entertain me, apocryphal.”


You ready? Are you the one I've been waiting for? Are you the manipulator?

I'm so sick of the same storyline used over and over; different casts every time. This time, I'm taking the reins, I'm creating a contest, where I provide ideas, you provide me a story. Of course, should you win, you'll be greatly rewarded (maybe). I created some of the craziest and most spontaneous trailers and all you have to do is manipulate it into your own. I don't mean steal my trailers and add your credit. You do that and you're gone. What I mean is, you take your pick of my trailers, somehow incooperate it into a story, even the slighest reference is fine, and write in a way so that you manipulate me into believing every word you write.

I will judge based on creativity, flair, originality, grammar, vocabulary and spelling.

You think you got what it takes to be the manipulator? Try me.

I think I'll be forfeiting too. My fic is nowhere near completion, but I wish to carry it on at my own pace so I will keep the credits intact.

I am sad to say that I will be unable to submit my entry in time because, lol, it's not even close to being finished. I'll keep the credits for you though, because I don't plan on deleting the story \(^ω^\)
