Make Me Fall In Love...with you, with life, with whatever.
You read the title, you know what to do. Letter, poem, crossword form or logic problem, I don't care how or who. Spelling and grammar DO count. All other standard rules apply. You're smart, so don't make me repeat them.
Number of honorable mentions will be determined at close of contest. I will comment on all entries, but do not give out applause until right before I finish judging. (But trust me, you'll all get applause.
)
If you can make me feel something...anything...you'll win.
Good luck and have fun,
~J.

Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on October 20, 2007
- Rewards: Gold: 300, Silver: 100, Bronze: 50, Honorable mention: 5 people
- Final notes: Thank you all so much for your beautiful and heartfelt entries. I was feeling very down and a bit cynical when I started this contest, but I knew my fellow AP poets would make me believe in love again.
Congratulations to DarkRomantic113 for penning the Gold winner. His letter spoke to me in a very personal and touching way, more than any other in the contest. I hope you'll take a few minutes to read it, as well as the silver and bronze winners: Arkbear's "silver fish" and "Seduction" by the chase. The HM's are in no particular order, and each of them are well worth a read as well.
I enjoyed every entry and hope to see all of your talents again.
Love to all,
~Julie

haha ... I couldn't write a happy love poem at this moment no matter how hard I try.
-
-
Me either, that's why I'm hoping someone else can. lol

Does this mean no women need apply?
-
-
I'd say women might have a BETTER chance of winning this contest, the way things have been lately.
But seriously...I want good poetry/writing, and there is no gender bias on that.

Hi Trista
Since it is you, I will be writing for this

Cool.

My dearest Sis...have missed writing for awhile...Well like most the others..I feel the same way. I find I have to live by codes to get messages.They can be very ardent...then you do something wrong, and well I won't say it,They are brokenhearted, but what about them leading you down the garden path, like you asked them to...You trust their fervency emcourage them gladly...and somewhere along you are someone that needs a checkup.I don't understand,but I try to be forgiving, and understanding...Right now my dear sis,I don't feel like am expert at all.But for you I would do anything, you know that so I will reconsider..It may be an ailment going around with some.It iks infectuos...The woman can come down with a strange depression brought about by the mens' confusion themselves...So watch out!

Hi Rose Angel...
It's good to hear from you again. I'd love to see an entry from you!
-

If I submit a logic problem in a differetial form with tripple-integration involved - would that be okay, put it another way - would you still think I'm sane?
Right, nice contest idea - hope you get a lot of love confessions!

Hi Jan
I'd not only think you're sane, but I'd do my best to figure out the problem.

Prewrites? Prewrites please? Please? Prewrites? Just one? Please? *fidgets*
-

LOL Okay, I opened it to prewrites...just for you. Well, I guess for others too, but I wouldn't have if you hadn't asked.

Hi trista
I ment to write for this
I am out of time.. Sorry
My heart is just not Happy -
-
Hi Rick,
I'm sorry you are unhappy.
I am too, so we should have lots to talk about.
I was wrong about the closing date. You still have one more day...and I have opened it to prewrites since I was asked so nicely to. So...no excuses for not entering.
