Themed Writing Competition Guidelines
Event Details:
Each participant needs to write a short story to be posted by midnight according to the Cafe clock in the Contest Entries section of the Fanfic Library: poirotcafe.com/board/31/poirot-cafe-contest-entries . That's midnight Sunday going into Monday; you have the entirety of Sunday to work. At the end of the writing period, any member can vote for their favorite story. The winner will get a prize and get to choose the theme for the next competition.
Make sure that when you post your stories on FF.net that you mention that the story was written for Poirot Cafe's competition to our readers! Let's have fun and advertise at the same time!
Prize:
Custom designed award badge that you can use in your signature or elsewhere.
Guidelines:
1. Keep stories relatively short (1,500 to 5,000, with 300 words TOPS to "wrap it up"), and please post word count at the top of your entry.
2. K-T ratings only. (Think suitable for about 14 years old.)
3. No crossovers or spoilers.
4. Must be new material written within the contest's writing period. No re-posted stories.
5. Please be fair and courteous when voting and reviewing!
Hi guys. I will be out of the country from Friday, October 6 to Monday, October 16. I don't really know what my internet situation is going to be since I'll be moving around a lot and don't plan to bring my computer or anything, so...I'll start the vote if we have enough entries for a vote on Sunday, October 1, but I'll have to see if Crimson or Natsumi can hop on to close it out on Saturday, October 7. I'll then start the new contest on Monday, October 16 as soon as I come out of my jet-lag coma. Thanks for your patience and understanding in this matter. Without further ado, have fun!
