I joined Penana in 2016, and there were hundreds of liked stories and just as many contests, now there are only a few liked stories and even smaller amount of contests. YOU CAN DO BETTER! You all give me a contest idea and I will host it, making a lot more contests if some people join. You can also have a story idea, and I will collab with you.

You have 4 weeks.

Ready, set, WRITE

Who doesn't like a good cookie? But the real question is "What would someone do for a good cookie?" Let's find out

You each have an entry to say what someone would do for a cookie, and make it good. Whether it be a murder story, a horror story, or a fake romance. What would be the limit someone would do for a cookie?

Each entry cannot be over five minutes, and please guys: Keep it clean. This is rated G and I don't want any 18+ content.

Alright, one more thing: Have fun, and end it with a cookie!

Wha-What? That was a little sudden, right? I mean seriously. Hello random person on this random website, welcome to the Hello, we are going to talk about fandoms contest. Wha-What?

In this contest we write a entry about our favorite fandom characters, Percy Jackson, Lord of the rings, Harry Potter, The Hunger Games, you name it!

Have your Character meet with another character(s) to go on a journey to save the world, for example: The Avengers meet with Gandalf and Percy Jackson to save their girlfriends... I don't care, I'd like it to be a little funny also. But there has to be a reason why they meet, Gandalf just can't pop up on earth can he? At least, I don't think so... who knows how many tricks Gandalf has down his sleeve.

That's right. I am daring you to read this. It is in the human nature to be curious and by reading this you will be more and more curious. Soon you wont be able to control it. And then...COOKIES!!!

As mentioned before this is a very pointless cookie hub for anyone who loves cookies! (This is meant to be humorous)

Have a character embark on a dangerous journey and encounter cookies along the way. What will this brilliant man do? Will he take the cookies because of curiosity how good they are... or will he not taste the chocolatey goodness. It is all for you to decide!

And before we begin... Bring 'em down and end it with a cookie!

P.S. Yes, That s my secret identity

P.S.S. I do not know why I told you

P.S.S.S. And I... Oh look, a cookie!

Pick a character that is not from this world. Have them come to earth and meet a human. Have a humorous entry and a humorous leave.

You can have more than one character, like a group. You can also have two different people from two different worlds. The character can also be from your story.

The character you pick has to come back in modern times and see stuff. See how they take it.

Thank you,

A dad has 3 children, ages 9, 13, and 7. They ask how he and mommy met. What does he tell them? Use your imagination! Don't be basic! They could've met ANYWHERE! The funnier, the better, let the readers be the judge!

No stories longer than 5 minutes.

Readers, if there's a story that you find hilarious, or just really like the story...Be sure to show the author some support by hitting the like button! Your likes determine whether or not they win!

-You've got 2 weeks, begin!

It's time once more for the  Penana Character Talent Show! Bring your best characters and put them to the test! Displays of grandeur and extreme skill are welcome, but beware, the readers are your judge! Appeal to their curiosity and you may just take home first place, but too much personality and you might just lose favor. The stage is yours...

In this contest, authors will write up an entry as to what your character's talent would be, should they ever enter a talent show! Get creative, and aim to please the audience! Here are the rules:

Authors:

-You may go into as much detail as you'd like about your character's act or talent, however, you may not describe the audience's reaction, as that will be the readers' jobs!

-Try to keep entries short enough to be no more than a 5 minute read.

-You may also react to other characters' entries, however, negative commentary and insults are not welcome! The entire point of this contest is to have fun, and salty people aren't fun. Encourage others to join and perform! :)

-Don't be afraid to use this as a way to promote your stories! You can shamelessly add a plug at the end of your entry to let readers know where they can find the rest of your character's adventure on your profile. :)

Readers:

-Your comments and likes will be the figurative reaction of the audience to the author's act. You are encouraged to display your enthusiasm through the comment section of each entry, and be sure to let the author know exactly how their act made the audience react! (Clapping, whistling, and standing ovations...yes!)

-If you enjoyed a particular act that you would like to see win, don't be afraid to recommend it or spread the word!

I just wanted to see if a concept like this would be successful! Have fun, and may the best talent win! :)

B E S T   C O M E B A C K    C O N T E S T #5

Write a comeback to one of the three insults:

1) "You're as useless as the 'g' in Lasagna.”

2) “I was hoping for a battle of wits, but you appear to be unarmed."

3)  “This is my cup of care. Oh look, it's empty”

I will pick one winner from each insult and then rank those three as 1st, 2nd or 3rd place.

When you do enter a comeback make sure to put the number of the insult somewhere in the title so I will be able to tell which insult you are responding to.

***You may enter more than once.***

You have 4 weeks to complete this challenge.

Write a simple short-story featuring either your favorite genre to read and/or to write.

It can feature one of your own book characters or a brand new one. It can even be from your point of view. Just make sure to have fun writing what you love the most!!

The winner will be decided by the amount of likes.  Be sure to share your story in order to ensure your win.

Also I will read the stories of the winner and give feedback, as well as follow them.

Happy Writing!! ;)

Imagine you can travel back in time, any time, anywhere.

If your presence has an influence to the future or not is up to you.

How about meeting an ancestor or a historical figure you've always wanted to meet? Or the opposite, meeting someone in the future?

Two entries per writer and max. 2'000 words, please keep it PG-13 if a battle/war/combat/torture/whatever is involved.

Pencil ready, paper set, write!

So basically you just need to type the most words in four weeks! I wish all good luck and I will chose the best piece! GOOD LUCK!! :D You can write any genre, keep it appropriate. I hope I get lots of you to put your own piece in. I am very excited for doing my first contest!!! :D

Not all of us like cliffhangers while reading stories. But they do build a sort of excitement in our guts which leaves us wanting MORE...

So write a story - any genre - which ends with a CLIFFHANGER.

Some examples of cliffhangers are (these are all made by me, so it's okay if you don't want to use them; these are just examples):

(i) It did not take a genius to realize that this was just the beginning.

(ii) And the words transpired out of her mouth like a petal falling on the ground, slow and soft, "He's coming back."

(iii) As he stared up at the dark clouds, death on the verge of consuming him, only one thought ran in his mind. The secret's gone. Forever.

(iv) And there she was. Her expression that of grief, anguish and above all - fright. But what rooted him to the spot was the little being in her hands. A baby. His baby. As he loomed over the little creature even he couldn't suppress the gasp that escaped his lips as the baby stared back at him with his dark abyss of blackness in place of eyes.

It's the end of summer and Jane is ready to do something crazy. What is it? You have 300-2,000 words to tell me. You have one week. Good luck. 

Are you funny? I think you are. Make up a joke, a one-liner, a shaggy-dog joke, a pun, anything. As long as it's funny, it'll work. Literally as many entries as can physically and mental pour out of your brain. Now, I don't get to judge this time. The community judges, so even if you're not funny, spread a few likes around. Are you ready? Get cracking.

After the contest is over and a winner has been determined by the community, I will pick my top three to be featured in Stupid Cruel Jokes.
