Seeing as how I'm rarely on here anymore, I figured I'd might as well give myself incentive to come back, if only for awhile.
I want anything at all. It makes no difference to me. Whether it be story or poem, my caring level is next to zilch.
However, if the grammar is terrible and I cannot get through to the end because it's so bad, I will not even consider it an entry, and I will tell you so. I'm a stickler when it comes to grammar, unfortunately.
Also, I would like only one prewrite from each contestant, the rest must be fresh, should you choose to enter more than once.
Oh, and no haikus. I cannot stand those, no matter how many times I try to convince myself there's nothing wrong with them and that they're really quite simple. If I see one, it's DQ'ed. Sorry, but those're the facts.
Most importantly, have fun with this. Let your imaginations loose, just don't bother trying to reign them in anymore. They'll only get loose again, anyway.

Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on May 21, 2007
- Rewards: Gold: 300, Silver: 200, Bronze: 100
- Final notes: So sorry for taking so freakin' long to judge this thing. Life dragged me back and wouldn't let me out until I agreed to sign some papers regarding something won't even care about.
I realize I did not comment on all the entries, and I apologize for this. I can see why you entered these fine pieces in my contest. If you are in dire need of a comment, however, let me know and I will gladly give you what I thought of your work. Just please know it might not be right away since life seems to need me for other things at the present.
I applaud your imaginations and hope you all have the sweetest of dreams!
~D

I used to share your opinion on Haiku's... Pointless... But changing my style *to* Haiku helped me break free of writer's block...
Good luck with the judging!
