Another Royo pic inspired prompt, this time a 48hr quickie.

Rules and notes first:

NOTES:
- No prewrites
- Multiple entries allowed
- No genre, style or category limitations
- HM's may be added dependant on number of entries
- Will remain anon, thus I will comment on all pieces when contest ends.
- If using a specific form, please explain in Author's Notes for the benefit of readers.

RULES:
- NO bashing
- If adult, erotica etc, etc, LABEL APPROPRIATELY
- NO sticky caps

That's all this time around, no other guidelines or rules. Now, to continue.....

Look at the image and just let it take you wherever you let it. Any genre or style, as long as it is pertaining to the image, any perspective, either from that of the woman, the dragon or anything and anyone else for that matter. Just go with it. Any length, any form, though, as stated in notes, if you use a specific form, please explain it in the author's notes for readers benefit.

Many, many thanks for viewing.

Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on October 20, 2007
  • Rewards: Gold: 400, Silver: 200, Bronze: 100, Honorable mention: 2 people
  • Final notes:
    Small-ish amount of entries for a contest again, however all of excellent quality. A nice varied range of length, form, style and subject matter all gleaned from the prompt.

    It was, as ever, very hard to judge as all pieces were excellent, particularly deciding on the trophy winners. Once that was decided upon, it was even more difficult to decide winning order.

    Congrats to the winners and thank you all for entering such good pieces in this contest, I will comment on all before the day is out (I'm a bit snowed under at the moment, but I will do it, I promise).

    Many, many thanks.

    Interesting contest. Your title, though; you should remove the comma after Dragon. I do not think you mean what it says.

      Yeah, come to think of it, it does look a bit daft with the comma.
