Quick One: Pay It Forward

I won gold in Ten Thousand Cicadas contest, so now I am paying it forward. If you win, it'd be cool if you would do the same.




10 entries


20 minutes


30-70 words


If you go over by a little bit, don't worry. But it must at least be 30 words.




PROMPT: The last breath

*Don't use that as the title. That just basically says to me 'hey look at me, I am not creative.'

Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on August 11, 2007
  • Rewards: Gold: 300, Silver: 75, Bronze: 50, Honorable mention: 1 people
  • Final notes:
    the top 2 were very good.. first place just spoke to me more.

    Some of you need to look up the word metaphor and look up the word imagery, and use those two devices in your poetry...or else you won't win in my contest. Most of all, don't be cliche. --just a tip-- but besides that everyone did a great job.

    Congrats to the top 4. They rocked. =)

      Nope, you're alright. Sorry it took so long.

      And I'll have at least one more before the 20th. [parents are kicking me off AP during the school year]

      Have fun shopping.
