Round 11 closed! Round 12 open!


I've always wanted to host a contest but never felt like I had the time to do so. So if I fall behind one month I will skip a month to catch up. Everything else applies otherwise. Reviews might not always happen but will try my best.

I'm thinking of animals and creatures. Sure, Sci-Fi and Mythology would have creatures too so those could be considered. Since the focus of the prompts would be about animals and creatures I have respectively chosen Animal and Fantasy for the genre, but any genre will be accepted as long as guidelines are followed. No erotica allowed.

Rules:

1. Pick a prompt to write your prose, short story, or poem.

2. Deadline lands on 11:59 p.m. of the last day of the month. New round will start by the 1st of the month. This applies to the current round only. Deadlines could get extended if no entries.

3. I will accept a prose (500 words or less), short story (600 words to 2,500 words), or a poem (40 lines or less).

4. Please include word count or line count somewhere.

5. Old or new accepted. If it has an awardicon it'll be okay too- items with awardicons are disqualified from winning an awardicon.

6. Use a form of bitem (item) or entry (book) using {bitem:#####} or {entry:#####}. If you lack space you may post in the forum directly. Entries posted in the forum are disqualified from receiving an awardicon.

7. Entry fee of 1,000 GPs per qualified entry.

8. This forum is 13+ only. I will allow 18+ entries if it is a link to the prose/story/poem.

9. Editing allowed up to the deadline. Edits afterward may become disqualified.

Round 12:

Prompts:

1. Your creature/animal has a green secret kept hidden for years.
2. Four leaf clover.
3. This can fall under nonfiction as well: St. Patrick Day surprise
4. This can fall under nonfiction as well: Favorite animal
