Welcome to another"Contest By Sinnastarr"
Where every contest is worth more points than the last.
This time around I am offering a total of 750 points.
Are you ready to quote yourself?
For this contest I am looking for your best, deepest, most inspiring quotes.
I want to be moved by your quote. I want it to “wow” me! I want something that
is memorable and will stand the test of time. Something worth quoting .
Something that will shake up and possibly change the way people think.
Here is an example of one of my own quotes.
http://allpoetry.com/poem/3589388
__________________________THE RULES_________________________
- must be a original quote. DO NOT QUOTE OTHER PEOPLE !
- must be under 6 lines.( if your quote is a full 6 lines, it better be something memorable)
- no erotic, dirty pretty, rape, or anything of that nature.
- 1 entry per person.
- I like dark, prophetic, clever, and uniquely written quotes. The more it makes me think
the better. making it rhyme may impress me. (only if done well)
- All other standard contest rules apply ( I'm sure I don't have to list them)
- I will remove your piece if any of these rules are broken, but feel free to enter another
piece if this happens.
- Be creative.

- Rewards: Gold: 500, Silver: 150, Bronze: 40, Honorable mention: 2 people
- Final notes:
Once again I am very pleased, both with the number of entries and the quality of the poems entered in my contest. Out of 74 total entries, 67 made it to the end, and to choose 5 out of 67 great quotes was very difficult indeed. Judging was nearly impossible! This is why I took 4 days to judge instead of my usual 2 days.
For the most part I was torn between simple yet powerful quotes, to Deep and profound ones. In the end, the winners were a combination of both.
I hope you all get a chance to read the winning 5 pieces.
Again, Thank you all so much for entering my contest.
I hope to see you all in my next contest. The number of points to be awarded in that contest will be 800 points! and as I had such a hard time judging this contest, I will also be awarding many more trophies.
This new contest will open next week.
As usual the points will always go up every contest I host and will never go down,
So look for my name and don't miss out on any of my big point “Contests by Sinnastarr”
