Ok, I finally earned some gold and now it's time to give out what I've been given!
I've taken the time to look for and provide some good pictures and other options, so it'd be nice if all entrants took the time to post their best work! I love imagery, I love stories, and if you can rhyme without obvious force then great!
I want to be moved, shocked, sent into fits of laughter, taken to another world... if you can get any of those out of me, then bonus points for you!

* * * * * * * * * *
- Prewrites are ok, provided they actually relate to your chosen option.
- If you want me to be able to finish the judging sometime this year... then DoN'T wRitE LiKe tHiS, it's wasting your time and mine.
- No cutting, erotica (I don't mind eerie and horror, but I'm not intersted in things that can worsen people's problems.) - Easy on the swearing... last time I looked there were quite a few descriptive words in the dictionary, so use them. If you feel you have a masterpiece but it just doesn't work without a some cursing then PM me and I will maybe reconsider.
- Let me know which option you chose in your authors notes
- I don't mind long poems, but I'm definitely not looking for a novel. Sometimes less is more anyway!
- Don't forget to credit the artist should you choose a picture prompt!
- Check your spelling please!
- IF it has mature content then label as mature, or you'll be disqualified!
Good luck and i'm looking forward to reading everyone's entries!

Sure... but I'd say maximum 3 per person or I might be judging until next year.
