2 Options: Pre-writes or Fresh Writes
Update: I didn't get any fresh writes which is dissapointing, there is a bonus for the best fresh write so... well Im reopening this contest until the tenth, and removing pre writes, I would really want people to rewrite one of my works, I know its hard seeing that they are so great that it may not even be possible, hopefully thats a challenge enough, but if i only get one person to enter a fresh write for option two, than that person will automatically get the 200 bonus pts.
Note: if you want to write a fresh write on a pre write option, that is fine,but it will not count as option two for the bonus, or you could click on the add key at the top of your page, create your poem, then submit it into the contest as a prewrite, both will work just fine. but still need option number in A.N. thanks, also extending another day, maybe more if I get more requests.
Gold = 600+
Silver = 200+
Bronze and HMs will follow as worthy writes come in.
Right now I have a cap on entries at 150, of which I will comment on, so please don't waste my time with bad entries, try and be proud of your work. And like always there will be a bonus, it is detailed below.

so you mean we only have the one option for fresh writes? I know, I know, lots of prewrite options but I'm not sure how any of my poems could fit those categories and I write widely of subject matter. *-wipes brow-* guess I'll go hunting through my penning and see if maybe one might fit (lol).

well if you do find something, I'll be glad to read it, and i know i only put one option for fresh writes, but i wanted people to get to know me a bit, and best way to do that is through my work, but thats why i put a bonus option there

Hello Individual,
Question: I would very much like to write about a martial arts' movie I like a lot, but that option is reserved for a prewrite only.
Can I write a new piece about a movie?
good luck with your cont.!

yeah sure, or you could write the piece seperate, then enter it as a pre write, its up to you, but will accept both, since you asked so nicely, by the way think bruce lee was a god, but any how will look forward to reading!

Aw dang it! So many choices! I love Family Guy, SG-1 and SGA, Star Trek, Heroes, Dune, Star Wars, X-Men, and Underworld! Leave it up to you to make the decisions so hard
