Almost everyone support shipping, so for this contest write a piece that focuses on the shipping of 2 or more characters. Any pairing, any characters. Your favorite book, tv show, your own characters. I don't care who they are or where they come from just ship them. Just be sure to write what fandom, book, story (yours, or someone elses) and start shipping.

Does it have to be R-rated? No, make it whatever rating you want.

Does it have to have sex or heavy romance scenes? Nope, it can be pure fluff if you want.

Let the Shipping Wars Begin.

Like the title suggests, write a piece about why you smile. Is it a special memory, a friend, that certain song. Any length. Write it anyway you want, I just want to know what makes you smile

Exactly like it sounds! :)

For this contest, writers will pick a word that holds meaning them, to the site, to the community, any word really, and create a new urban dictionary definition for it. You can be as creative, personal, or funny as you wish, just pick a word and write!

Example:

I-Dont-Like-I-Obsess, noun:

1. An awkward author who enjoys creating contests for fellow Pens.2. Lover of food and all things netflix.3. Also see: Fangirl.

Have fun!

Have you ever heard anything that just doesn't feel right?  If so... why?  Pick a common cliché and defy it!

I have my own blog on this website called "Defying Clichés."  Now, I present a contest!    However, I tend to stick with phrases in my blog... in thiscontest, it's you'll have a bit more free reign!

You can pick any commonly discussed topic, and talk about it.  Explain it in a way that hasn't been heard before!  Get creative, and opinion is needed!  Don't avoid absolutes, say what you think about it.  Is it right?  Is it wrong?

Again, this isn't just phrases, it can be about religion, feminism-- heck even homosexuality.  Anything that you think either has a bad name, or too good of one!  Make sure to explain your reasoning!  :)

Rules:

•No bashing

•Be respectful of other entries if you're in disagreement

•Remember that the goal of this contest is to debate a common moral/idea and rewrite it's definition!

•Have fun!

What is the best insult you've ever heard?

for example:

Is your ass jealous of the amount of s**t that just came out of your mouth?

I don't hate you, but if you were on fire and I had water, I'd drink it.

What are you going to do for a face when the baboon wants his butt back?

the winner's entry will be used next time my enemy gets on my nerves.

Hey Guys.

The chances are we've all been there, or even are there now . I want you guys to summon your inner teenager, and write the angstyest ( totally a word) stuff.

All forms are accepted, and the winner will be based off creativity, how interesting it is, and other stuff that'll come to me as I decide😋. Have fun!

Write about life in no more than five words.

Judging will be based on creativity, how interesting it is and how well it sums up life.

you can enter up to three times.

Write a story where the main character is going through any type of recovery. Wether in a treatment center or a hospital, but they have to be in one of those two places and try to strike up conversations with the other people there. Share their story and why they are there. Any length any subject. Have fun with it. Any rating is allowed.

Most of us can hold our own in a debate when the topic is something we strongly agree with. The question is, can you debate something you may not completely agree with.

For this contest, you will pick any topic that is debate worthy and choose the side that you agree with. Set that side somewhere to the side for some other day, because today you stand for the side you may not agree with.

For example, lets say you are for gay marriage. You are going to do a debate against gay marriage.

Any length, any topic, any rating is acceptable, but keep in mind this is a debate. Winners will be chosen by content. Your spelling and such may not be perfect, but in this contest what truly matter is the content. How well can you debate a topic you don't agree with.

Here's a few suggestions for topics. Use one of these or come up with one of your own. It can be something major, or even something minor, just back it up with facts. While your opinion matters, you need facts to prove your case.

Example topics are:

gay marriage

religious issues

sexism

abortion

dogs make better pets than cats (or vice versa)

anything that you can debate is allowed here, so lets see how well you can debate a topic you don't completely agree with. If I could do it a few years ago in a high school Honor's English class, you can do it now. Have fun.

What was the worst moment of your life? It can be any rating, there is no word limit, and it can be about anything. Maybe you threw up in class one time, or accidentally dumped your lunch on your crush, anything. You guys have exactly two weeks and be honest. Nobody will laugh at you. It happens to the best of us.
