Under The Same Sky - A Writing Contest [Intermission - Voting]

Description

Hello and welcome to the very first writing contest I have ever hosted!

The contest is made in hopes to bring a lot of talents together and support authors as they are the reason why we all are here on Asianfanfics. I have also created it in hopes to better myself as a reviewer as I will be writing a review for each of the finished entry!


I am currently looking for promoters who can spread the word, an editor to pick a layout for this contest, and anyone who can participate in phase 1 of the contest! (you do not have to be an author to participate! go to the latest chapter for more information!)

Foreword

RULES AND GUIDELINES FOR PARTICIPANTS

1. Subscribe to the contest for updates.

2. Do everything as required in all phases of the contest (exception is phase 1 as it is optional). There will be 3 phases:

i) Phase 1: Submit prompts (Oct 2, 2022 - lasts until 20 approved prompts are submitted): in this phase, anyone (anyone, not necessarily authors who would later join the contest) may submit up to 3 prompts. After voting from judge and guests, ONE prompt will be selected for authors to base their story on.

ii) Phase 2: Write stories (after phase 1 - lasts until 20 stories are completed or 365 days from the day any one of the entries is completed, whichever comes faster): each author shall write only ONE story for the chosen prompt and complete by the deadline. Author may submit entry form before their story is actually completed, but it might get disqualified for any reasonable cause (e.g. when it is the 21st entry to get completed, because the contest is set to end once 20 entries are completed).

iii) Phase 3: Reviews (after phase 2 - lasts for 14 days after the last review is posted): the judge (me!) will give a review for your entry (contents of the reviews will be public). Author will read the review and shall make requests for further reconsideration. After this, the judge will grade the stories to determine the final winners.

ENTRY RESTRICTIONS:

1. There are no restrictions on pairings (if any): idol x idol, idol x OC are both allowed, but one of the main characters must be a currently active K-pop idol (you may request for other idols/ actors!)

2. There is no length nor chapter count restrictions. Write as much as your heart desires!

3. Your story has to follow closely with the chosen prompt (either figuratively or literally).

4. No old stories are allowed!

Sounds good. I'll be voting once I have better internet in a few days. When is this contest accepting entries?

Chapter 4: Prompt: Dreams are for idealists, but realists live way too objectively that they forgot that dreams forge their future, too.

Hi, there! I was just wondering if you needed more prompts to go on to Phase 2.

Hi, not sure if you're still on going with the contest or not, but I'd like to submit a prompt.

PHASE 1 FORM:

Prompt 1:
Person A: You lied to me.
Person B: I lie to everybody. What makes you so special?
(quotes from The Mummy)

I see that you still need prompts before this can open. Would you be up for taking some more that I have?
