Hello and welcome to the Contest of Firsts!


Thank you for the mention in the Contests & Activities Newsletter 22nd August 2012 Giselle Also for the mention in the Contests & Activities Newsletter 26th December 2012 spidey And for the mention in Contests & Activities Newsletters 10th April 2013!

Every month I am going to provide a prompt, a prompt that I then want you to go away and write about. It will be about a first time, whether it be riding your bike or your first kiss, I want to hear about it! I want to feel everything, the pain when you scrape your knee, the smell after you've created your first meal, the touch of someone's lips as they kiss you for the first time! Be creative and descriptive with your piece *Smile* I want to experience it the way you did!

After you've written your piece I want it posted in the forum and then I will judge the winners! Please use the {bitem: } link when posting your piece, let me know if you need any help with it!


*Giftb* The Prizes! *Giftb*

1st Place - Merit Badge or awardicon or 10,000 gps (your choice!)

2nd Place - 5,000 gps

3rd Place - 2,500 gps


Rules!

*Burstv* Items must be 2000 words or under, no minimum required.
*Burstv* I understand that some themes may require more explicit material, but please, try to keep it toned down a little!
*Burstv* Only entries to the current prompt will be accepted. A piece written at any time can be entered but only those who do not already have awards.
*Burstv* You have one month to write and after that I will take one week to judge.
*Burstv* There needs to be at least five entries for all the prizes to be given. Any less than that and I reserve the right to give out only the first prize.
*Burstv* Post into a new post using the {bitem: } link and include your word count somewhere in the post.
*Burstv* This is a non-fiction contest so statics must be created in some sort of non-fiction genre.
*Burstv* Entries should not be altered after the deadline until winners have been announced.

Any donations made will go towards the prizes for the rounds. Any donations 35k or over will receive a Merit Badge *Smile* Donations can be made to
