Hey everyone,
So I'm bored and am in a total creative slump right now so you all shall entertain me.
I have a few options for you all relating to the book Wicked, The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West and the musical.
1. Rewrite a new ending. Add your own twist to the already twisted story. For example, in this drawing by ~DryEyez on Devianart, after Fiyero dies Elphaba runs out into the rain and kills herself. After the rain seeps into her skin it washes away the green, a bittersweet ending.
2. Write me a poem based on the relationship between Elphaba & Galinda. If you've heard the musical be careful not to rephrase the songs, such as "Loathing" or "For Good". Trust me I know them by heart!
3. If you've read the book, what ever did happen to Fiyero? They never really did make that clear. Tell me what you think happened to him.
4. What would Elphaba have been like had she not been green?
5. What is Nessarose's whole take on this story?
6. Or just anything at all pertaining to the book or musical. Just be careful not to re-write one of the songs! That's plagerism & it's illegal! If you want to use part of it put that in quotes and give credit.
YOUR POEM DEPENDS ON WHETHER YOU READ THE BOOK OR SAW THE MUSICAL, PUT IN AUTHOR'S NOTE WHICH ONE ALONG WITH OPTION NUMBER.
RULES
1. No erotica
2. Keep cursing to a minimum.
3. No chat lingo. This is a poem not a text!
4. NoNE oF tHiS!!
5. You will be DQ instantly if you plagerize! It's illegal. If you want to use part of the songs put quotes around it and give credit!!!
6. OPTION NUMBER & BASED ON BOOK OR MUSICAL IS A MUST IN THE AUTHOR'S NOTES!! It gets confusing otherwise. Yes they are quite different!
7. PRE-WRITES ALLOWED BUT MUST BE RELEVANT & FOLLOW ALL ABOVE RULES!!
Get creative and have fun!!
~~~EDIT~~~
Since I only have a few entries, I shall open this contest for another week. Please enter, I'm giving away a lot of points here!!

Sorry about that! If you have any poem at all to do with Wicked please go ahead and enter. I posted this late last night so I wasn't really thinking. I meant to put "whatever you want pertaining to book or musical" as last option but I forgot. Sorry!

Lucky!! I've only got to see it once. Have fun! Looking forward to your poem.

Wicked owns.
Though I must say, I much enjoy the storyline of the book as opposed to the musical, but the score in the musical is mind-blowing.
But yes, I still think Elphaba should die in the end, otherwise it doesn't pertain to the original Wizard of Oz story.
And that's my ramble.
Enjoy your contest!!

I loved Wicked (the musical) haven't had a chance to read the book yet. I submitted something I wrote the other day with reference to one of the songs "No Good Deed" hope you like it :-)
