Mini-Update #2 (One Week Left)

From Head to Toes Writing Contest

Hello everyone!

There is slightly over one week left until the contest deadline! As a reminder, the countdown timer is linked on the foreword, so you can use that to keep track of exactly how much time you have left! Thank you to everyone who has submitted an entry since! :) We've reached the next checkpoint for the Best Of - Baekhyun karma prize, so that's been officially increased to 1000 karma points. :D Currently, a little over a third of the submitted entries are complete, so if yours is still incomplete, good luck on finishing it! If you need an extension, please contact me! And if you haven't submitted your entry yet, please do so ASAP! Time is ticking, so you don't want to miss out!

Also, CONGRATULATIONS to EXO for winning three consecutive Daesang awards this awards season, CONGRATULATIONS to Chen for winning two consecutive awards for Nosedive this awards season, and CONGRATUALTIONS to Lay for winning Album of the Year in China! <3 All of the OT9 mentions during their speeches got me teary-eyed and emo. :')

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!

Next updates will be the three-day countdown leading up to the deadline. They will be detailing story settings, the judging process, and the announcement of the winners. (listing this out so i'm held accountable, haha)

Until then, good luck on finishing your stories and to anyone who's studying for finals!

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:
