Hosted by luv_kero
Welcome to Starry Knight Writing Contest! This is a Monsta X writing contest/giveaway! I wanted to host this contest in honor of Monsta X's fourth anniversary and my second anniversary of being a Monbebe. There's also a lack of Monsta X stories on AFF, so I'd like to encourage people to write about them and spread the love as the boys continue reaching greater heights! If you write about idols other than Monsta X, check out the Shoes of a Unicorn Writing Contest to enter that as well! There's also merchandise to be won in that contest, so you're not missing out! If you're a fan of Red Velvet, check out the Scent of a Rose Writing Contest, which is a Red Velvet-centric writing contest that I'm hosting in 2020! And if you're a fan of EXO and in need of inspiration or new reading material, check out the entries that were submitted to the From Head to Toes Writing Contest, which was an EXO-centric writing contest that I hosted in 2017! And if you're a fan of SHINee, check out the Pearl Aqua Dreams Writing Contest, which was a SHINee-centric writing contest that I hosted in 2018!

Rules & Guidelines

001.If you are reading other participants' entries, please be respectful and do not bash their writing. Such immature behavior will not be tolerated.

002.Please subscribe, especially if you plan to submit an entry. I will be posting important information and updates that contestants must be aware of. Upvotes are highly appreciated and contribute to the Best Of karma prizes, but subscribing is mandatory.

003.Depending on the length of your entry, it must be published after a certain date. Stories that are longer than thirty chapters must be written after July 24, 2017. Stories that are ten to thirty chapters long must be written after January 24, 2017. Stories that are shorter than ten chapters must be written after July 24, 2018. The password is your favorite constellation.

004.All entries must be submitted and finished by the deadline, which is listed above. If you are unable to finish by the date given, you must PM me at least 24 hours before with a plausible reason. I will then give you an appropriate extension that you must finish by.

005.There are no prompts. A Monsta X song list is provided for inspiration, but does not need to be used.

006.Please link this contest in your story's foreword. Blog posts promoting the contest are also highly appreciated, but hyperlinking is mandatory.

007.Since this is a Monsta X-centric contest, at least one of the main characters must be a Monsta X member. Other K-Pop idols, actors/actresses, and OCs may be used as main/side characters as long as a Monsta X member is featured as a main character in your entry.

008.Any genre may be used. However, pure , genderbenders, M-preg, ia/hebephilia, , and are not allowed and will not be accepted. Any triggering and/or rated stories/chapters must be marked appropriately.

009.Beta readers are allowed. If English is not your first language, I highly recommend you get a beta reader so you will not lose points due to poor grammar, awkward sentence structure, etc.

010.There is no word/chapter limit. You may write a drabble, a one-shot, or a chaptered story. As long as it is finished by the deadline and adheres to the rest of the rules, an entry of any length will be accepted.

011.You may enter as many stories as you'd like to this contest as that may increase your chances of placing in the top three and/or receiving a Best Of karma prize. However, you will only receive one physical prize. As much as I'd like to give a physical prize for every story entered, I do have limited funds. The entry form must be filled out for each story.

012.Your stories may be entered into other contests, as long as they allow it as well. I highly encourage you to enter your stories in my main writing contest as well, as long as they adhere to the rules there. You will get double my love.
