Let's hope this doesn't go like last time, because last time I deleted the contest due to lack of interest.
-------------------------------------------------------
Prompt 1: Die Like You Mean It
Prompt 2: Killing you helped me keep you at home (Motley Crue, You're All I Need)
Prompt 3: Daddy's girl has become someone else's fantasy (Crashdiet, Falling Rain)
Prompt 4: Tequila is his heartbeat, his veins burned gasoline (Skid Row, 18&Life)
Prompt 5: Alcoholism, be it your own or the fear of what someone you love is doing to themselves.
Prompt 6: Tell me about your alter-ego, whether it's the terrified little child locked up inside or the big, bad bastard that you show the world. Tell me what goes on inside, or why you need to act like a cocky git.
Prompt 7: That rather charming photo of Nikki Sixx at the top of the page. Apologies, but I don't know who to credit it to.
-------------------------------------------------------
Rules:
1) Spelling and grammar are your friends.
There is a spell check, don't make me sad.
2) Type like you have a brain.
No CAPS and no StIcKy CaPs. I find them painful.
I'm also annoyed by people who capitalise the first letter of every word.
3) Put the prompt you used in the author's notes.
I'll disqualify you if you don't.
4) No religion.
It makes me highly uncomfortable. I dislike being told I'm going to hell just because I think you're wrong.
5) Make it easy to read.
I don't want blue backgrounds and blue fonts - it's retarded and annoying.
6) Whatever my language so far suggests I do not like gratuitous cursing, well not in poetry.
7) 10-50 lines, please.
8) No dirty-pretty, I fail to know what it is.
I prefer free-verse - I think. My grasp of form is minimal.
-------------------------------------------------------
Other information:
- I like things dark, creepy and twisted.
- I hate cliche, my attention span is short.
- Nikki Sixx is my idol, because he survived it all.
- I may not comment, it depends on my mood. I will try.
- I reserve the right to disqualify you.
- I reserve the right to close the contest for any reason.
- I reserve the right to be a bitch.
- Points will be added later if I decide there are worthy entires.
Other than that, good luck and I look forward to reading the entires.
