Round Nine: Events & Prompts

Shoes of a Unicorn Writing Contest | Round Eleven | Closed for Judging

EVENTS
& PROMPTS

INFORMATION

There are two event categories you have the option of choosing from. Each category has specific parameters that must be followed and a corresponding set of prompts that you will pick from. You may use as many prompts as you'd like in your entry, as long as they are all in the same category. A K-Pop song of your choice must also be paired with your entry. You may enter up to two times (this is encouraged, but not required), each one with prompts from a different category. Only one entry will place in the top three, but it may increase your chances.

Chapter 57: You owe us no explanation at all. But, it's really kind of you to do so. Everyone's been going through a storm of reality right now. Currently, my grandmother is in the hospital with stage 3 cancer. Although there isn't a "great" time for anyone to fall ill, now is an especially awful time. Please don't neglect your personal healing for the sake of this contest! My heart is with you, Emily :)

Chapter 57: Hey, Emily. I'm so sorry to hear about the losses in your family. My condolences. I was getting worried as well when I haven't heard from you in a while. Thank you for the update and there's no need for the apologies, my friend. Family and real life comes first. I hope you're doing well too! Take care, and have fun reading the rest of the entries!

P.S. That quote at the end definitely holds true. Hang in there. <3

I only hoped that I discovered this way earlier. What I'm trying to say is, thank you for hosting this contest. Aff community is fun with the likes of you. ♡
