[2]Non-crap writes please.
[3]You can ask for another picture.
[4]Don't take more than 3 days.
[5]Under 50 lines please!
[6]Accepting 15 entries, but I'll make room for Favorites should that occasion arise. (:

As a head's up...
I will most likely be giving you a:

Gold***My Matrix On You
I swear to God I am not biased just because it was about The Matrix--the write was AMAZING. (:
Silver**Salem and I
I LOVED THIS--it was simply evocative & summed up life so well.
Bronze*signs along the way
An awesomely clever write, considering the picture provided that goes way beyond physical description.
HM1-Ice-seared Iris
Wonderful description & poetic ability.
HM2-Cul-de-sac
I loved the title & the write itself was chilling & suspenseful.
HM3-Hand in the Lolly Jar
LoL...read it for a laugh & a mention of lemon cupcakes!!! (:
HM4-Picking at the Bones
Uber dark & eloquent & full of tons of alliterative assonance!
