I entered a competion like this a few weeks ago and I thought it was pretty cool so I felt like holding one.
It's pretty simple ~ Just describe yourself in 10 words, no more, no less. Can you do it?
Winner will be picked on creativity and originality.
{ EDIT: I knew I forgot something; not essential but I give brownie points for un-plain backgrounds. I'm not saying for the paid members to go and make fancy backgrounds or anything coz that's unfair for us free members (you can if you want), but just something that compliments your poem }
Entries can be of any genre ~ they just have to describe you. Here was mine from the one I entered:
>> title >> { I am } << title <<
a silent child trying to stand out in the world
Yes, you can have the start of the sentence as your title if you are finding it too hard; but no more than two words.
Will judge when all positions are taken (might have to come back a bit later coz I'm going away tommorow til monday)
Points may go up
