Okay if anyone can remember, I did a contest like this with titles, word prompts and quotes. Now, I am kind of merging several options. This time however, it's different, this is how it works.
20 Title Prompts
20 Picture Prompts
20 Quote Prompts
20 Lyric Prompts
20 Word Prompts
I am going to list them on this page and you choose which one you like. Then, when you have done this, I want you to enter your entry. Your entry title should look something like this:
5 - Forbidden Treasures
So I know what number you have chosen. If you are really opposed to doing this, then put it in your AN, but I know more people like to keep their AN empty, so please do one or the other, thank you.
Rules:
1. Can enter as many times as you like.
2. Please don't take a number someone else has. Look to see if that number has been taken, don't be lazy.
3. Label entries correctly if dark, erotic or adult content is involved.
4. No line limit, but be sensible, no 200 line poems, please.
5. Monochromatic backgrounds [one coloured].
6. Enjoy yourselves and ask if you have any questions.
