2016 Fakku Summer Writing Contest

Cinia Pacifica · 2016-07-17T05:11:47+00:00

The FAKKU Summer Writing Contest has finally returned. I bid you ladies and gentlemen to take up your pen and papers, get your flow of creativity going, and get ready to write. May the scorching heat of summer test your mental perseverance, rather than discourage you from creating what you may one day boast to be your greatest masterpiece. If it counts as incentives for you, we have FAKKU Subscriptions as prizes this year, so I’d encourage everyone—even those who haven’t tried their hand at writing—to give it a shot. Rules: 1. The word limit is 2500, please make sure not to cross this limit for your entry, for the extras will be disregarded. 2. The themes for this contest are: Mystery, Horror and Supernatural. All stories must contain aspects of at least one of the three themes. 3. Any kind of creative writing will be accepted, thus stories and poetry are both welcome. 4. Please be informed that it must be your own original work. If the work is found to be plagiarised, it will not be counted as an entry. We will be examining your work very closely. 5. A link to your entry submission must be posted in this thread for your participation in the contest to be acceptable. 6. While comments are allowed in this topic, please keep the posts here relevant. 7. Please note that we do not support anyone having someone else edit, fix or improve grammatical errors, or anything in their entry. So, don’t do that. Your entry should be your own work. 8. Please include the following tag [Summer Contest Entry 2016] at the front of the thread title of your entry. An example would be “[Summer Contest Entry 2016] My midsummer trip to the beach.” 9. Each contestant is allowed to submit a maximum of ONE entry. Deadline: The deadline for entries is 00:00 of the 20th of August, 2016 (EST, GMT-5). Entries after this specific time will be disregarded. Judging: A panel of three judges—d(^_^)(^_^)d, Xenon and myself—will choose our favorites based on our judging, explain the reasoning behind them, and declare the two winners. The Prize: There will be two winners. Both winners may earn the same reward: a month’s worth of subscription. This may or not may happen, but the winners may also receive a code based on what FAKKU Book (digital) they desire, and they will then be able to get said book without having to pay for it. Additionally, the winners shall earn the respect and praise of the writers of the Writing and Fanfiction sub-forum’s community, and they may also be able to judge for the next Summer Writing Contest. So, get your ideas out and give it a shot. Believe in your own potential and aim for the top. You may just be able to impress us with your writing and creativity. Edit: Stickied by Gambler

I've gotta say, very difficult topic for me in a lot of ways. I think it fits the theme(s) of the contest enough though.

You were faster than I thought, though.
