Scent of a Rose Writing Contest

INFORMATION

Hi guys! Once again, I hope you all have been taking care of yourselves this past month since it's been rough for the K-Pop community, especially if you're multi-fandom like myself. If you need someone to talk to for whatever reason, my inbox is always open!

So, yup, no Finale in November, but my guess that it'll happen in mid-December might still be valid, haha. As of now, nothing is planned in December except for Gayo Daejun on Christmas and because the girls are going back on tour in January, it makes sense from a scheduling perspective to have them release the finale this month. Then again, SME doesn't seem to know how a calendar works, so who knows. :') NCT 127 and Red Velvet are both scheduled to have comebacks this quarter and EXO is supposed to release a repackaged album before the year ends, according to the financial report that was released a few months ago, but obviously plans change and I also should know better as a long-time fan of SME groups. OTL

On a more positive note, I'm so happy the girls were able to have a great start to the La Rouge tour in Seoul! ^^ Still sad that I couldn't make it, but I'm hoping they'll come back to the west and add an LA stop to the tour. I'd love to see the ReVe Festival and new concert-exclusive tracks performed live if given the chance. And honestly, I just miss the girls a lot. :')

The deadline for Round Ten of my main contest, Shoes of a Unicorn Writing Contest, is also coming up soon (December 31, 2019) and I highly encourage you all to join that contest as well! You can enter your stories in this contest and that one, as long as the rules for both are followed, and it's a great chance to win some merch now instead of having to wait another eight months for this contest to conclude. ^^

Anyway, please continue to write stories, submit entries, and promote the contest! 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 like to be a karma donator, please contact me so we can discuss the specifics. I will repay you for your generosity! Have an awesome day and I'll see you in the next update!

I feel really bad saying this :< ... like 'terrible' bad if that's a thing but I'd like to have my entry withdrawn please... I know I still have a little over an hour left before my extension ends and maybe I can still finish but, I really don't want to half my story for anything. Thank you for being understanding and granting me an extension despite which I could not complete my entry, we were informed in the last minute (again! why is everything last minute with me!) of classes that would be conducted online because of how the number of covid cases are rising here again and I just... and that was after I asked for the extension too...*internal screaming* also it doesn't help that I had to entertain some guests yesterday instead of actually sitting down to complete my story oof.



Wishing the other entries the best of luck! And thank you again! for hosting this contest and being understanding!



Now I shall sob because of my terrible luck and read and support the other entries instead c:
