    I'm Shadow, a (mainly) science fiction writer who just likes to write! I started writing very young, and when I found Maximum Ride Fanfiction on Wikia, I began to share my love of writing with the internet. You can find my stuff on Amazon at http://amazon.com/author/stopazwolf

    Writing style: I write relatively short chapters - around 5-minute reads - but I try to write often. I'm open to suggestions, so feel free to give constructive feedback. But really, please don't plain hate, appreciate!

    Genres: Science fiction, fantasy, comedy, and fanfiction, mainly. Other stuff as well, occasionally. Lots of contests, too. I really like contests. Invite me to one anytime, and I'll do my best.

    Beta Reader: If you need any help with grammar, story sense, or anything at all, invite me as a beta reader. Even if the topic isn't something I usually do, just ask!

    Places to find me:
    • Discord (ShadowBobcat10 #4110)
    • Amazon (http://amazon.com/author/stopazwolf)
    • Wikia (http://community.wikia.com/User:ShadowBobcat10)

We are all very aware of story clichés. Love at first sight, heroes who slay all the dangerous monsters with just his bare face, girls who talk all day long for the sake of talking, teenagers getting slashed by chainsaws, and that one good looking girl or boy who takes all other girls' or boys' breaths away.  In other words, we always avoid story clichés. This time, I want you to write the most cliché short story possible under 2,000 words. Make it about anything you want as long as it is PG-13 or under.

Readers, this contest is based on like count, so instead of picking the most original stories, pick the most clichéd stories you read. It'll be fun.

Two entries per person and four weeks starting August 4, 2016. So what are you waiting for? Use all the story clichés you can. Have fun!
