For this contest I will put a word and you have to make up a meaning for it. Remember you can't look up the real meaning but I will post it at the end. It can be whatever you want; Poem, Story, song, etc. (Max. 555 words). The word is...

Ellipsism

Good luck and have fun!

For this contest I am going to give a story prompt and you can do a story, or a poem or whatever you want. The length of the story, poem, etc. doesn't matter. Prompt-

"Are your eyes closed?" he asked screaming against the howling wind hoping she could hear him.

"Yes!" she answered screaming from above him.

"Good. No matter what happens, you must keep them closed."

Have fun and enjoy!

Write the months as characters in any way you like. As a poem, a short story or one-shot entry, ... You name it. ;-)

It can be about one single month up to all twelve of them if you like.

No word limits and per writer 3 entries max.

Have fun and enjoy the month! ^.^

So, I know a lot of quote contests circulate around this website a lot for contests.  And, like most of them, this one will be a little different from the last.

As the title states, your challenge will be to "Quote The Now."  Which means that you're going to write a quote based on something significant going on in your life right now.  So, for example, if you're in a season of transition, maybe write a quote about change.  It can range from something vague, to something very specific.  I'd like to keep the word count under 50, but for the sake of expression, we'll make the word limit 100.

Another important feature.  This is aLIKED BASED CONTEST.That being said, there's going to be a few different rules...

Rules:

1.) No liking your own issue!

2.) Please take time and read allthe issues.  (I know this sounds dumb, and I'm not saying to read them all word-for-word, but make sure you've given each issue at least somewhatof your attention.)

3.) Word limit: 100 words

4.) Quote must be relevant to contest conditions.

Okay, that about sums everything up!  If you guys have any questions, feel free to drop a question in the comment section.

What is the human condition?  Thousands of ancient thinkers have given their best shot at this question, and now it's aimed towards you.Perhaps it's the condition of the heart, the mind, the soul, or the body--maybe all of it.  But what exactly is the human condition?

Word Limit: 1,000 words

Here's an example of something I wrote.  Very short, they don't all have to be as short as this... your word limit is 1,000 words, after all.

It's the human condition to hate

It's the human condition to want love

In the secrets of our hearts we hide

Hoping to one day be found

If we knew what we wanted

Than we would've found it by now

But we still

Don't know

What were looking for

This example is more poetic, but the entries don't have to be.  Communicate in any form of writing what you believe to be the human condition.

Write your hearts out!

I don't really know how this feature works but all I can say is that this contest is about writing a heartbreaking scene. 

(I, too, like reading something that can break my heart LOL)

Good luck!
