How this first part of the challenge will work is, you will all have been sent a link to a picture, the picture you receive will be according to the first number I asked you to pick.
You will also be sent your very own little word bank and that will be different for every 4th person. You have to use ALL of the words in your word bank just the way they are written.
Then you will be sent a phrase, now the phrase is a common theme that all of you will be working from. I know how I want the words I sent you to be used as in what tense but it is for you as you know what I like and the other components I sent you to use the words as they should correspond to your poem.
You all know what I like. You all should know by now that I am a fair and impartial judge and you should all know that I play "NO" favorites. You should be able to tell this by the variety of writers who are in this challenge.
Please, if you can, put the image you were given on your contest poem, if you can't, please put what number you chose 1-5 in your author comments. I would also like you to put your word bank in your author comments.
My judging system will be as follows:
This will be my judging system:
Total: 100 points
Spelling, Grammar and Punctuation: 20
How well you handled the prompt(s): 20
Presentation: 20
Originality: 20
Overall: 20
I would like to be able to keep this contest 100% anonymous so if you could please also leave a note in your author comments telling people not to use your name or something like that in theyr comments to you it would be very much appreciated. Also, of you have any questions or anything, please privately IM Imperfezione Bella, she will answer to the best of her ability. DO NOT message me please. I have also asked her to join this group to make it easier for you to contact her.
Please check back at this page often for any updates as there may be some and if and when there are, you will find out ASAP.
I guess that's about it. There will be eliminations of course but not sure how many yet. Probably 12-13 will go into the next round.
As far as the second number you all gave me in your blank poem, that will be used at a future date so please leave that in your author comments also.
Alright then, you will have until midnight Friday to complete your poem so go to it. You are all very talented and smart so I'm sure I don't need to tell you, please do not describe the picture to me, I know what it is, I picked it and gave it to you. Please really do put forth your best effort here for I know you are all capable of writing GOOD poetry, don't give me a piece of crap, you know better than that. Really think about the elements I gave you to write this with and use them well.
I EXPECT TO GET THE WOW FACTOR HERE TOO!
Be gone with you now. Write me something totally amazing.
Best of luck to each of you. Be well and be blessed.
