In this contest, you will be asked to write a story based on one of the pictures below. It doesn't matter how long it is. Each picture will be on its own post, and when people enter their stories, they'll be listed below each picture.

Entries are due Saturday, August 24 by midnight Pacific time. You can enter one story per picture. You do not have to be a member of the forum to enter, and you may post your stories on our forum if you don't want to post on your Wattpad or FictionPress account. To enter your story, go ahead and post a link to your story and let us know what picture your story goes with.

Prizes:

The first overall place winner will receive critiques from Valkyrie and Okapi. For Wattpad members, they will also get a dedication and a shout out from Okapi.
The second place winner will get a critique from Valkyrie or Okapi, their choice.
The third place winner will get a critique from the other admin that the second place winner doesn't choose.

All three will also have the option of having Okapi draw them something on Paint.

For each picture, there will be a winner as well. Those winners will get a comment on a story, and for Wattpad members, a follower.

Feel free to ask any questions!

If you want to do all six, go ahead, but if you only want to do one, that's cool too.

pariah: So I'm thinking about getting a start on my novel FF (The Four Friends - but the title is lame, so I shorten it to excuse the childishness to it. But I created it when I was quite young so I refuse to change it for that matter.) I won't be going public c/ Aug 16, 2013 14:55:57 GMT -7

pariah: with this thing, but I would like some readers to read it via PMs, and the such. You'd be given credit as editors on both the storyline and typos/grammatical sense. I would like the age range of the readers to be between late teens (over 16) to early 20s. Aug 16, 2013 14:57:43 GMT -7
