Prompts
1. Write about love. Write about how love is painful. A breakup perhaps. If you choose this I am looking for something along the lines of sadness and lost love type stuff.
2. Write about a huge tragedy that happened to you. Something that was so sad and so unexpected. I want to understand your thought process as you came to understand this shocking truth with lots of description
3. Write about something you really want. Some deep desire/passion that burns inside you. Something that bothers you always. Something that you could cry for.
4. Write about something that makes you very sad. Something that you perhaps can't change but have to deal with anyway.
YOU MUST PUT THE NUMBER OF THE PROMPT IN THE AUTHORS NOTES OR I WILL DQ TO MAKE ROOM FOR PEOPLE WHO WISH TO FOLLOW THE RULES. PLEASE DON'T TAKE IT PERSONALLY. FEEL FREE TO RE ENTER IT WITH THE CORRECT RULES FOLLOWED
NO RESERVES PLEASE BECAUSE I WILL CLOSE THE CONTEST WHENEVER I FEEL LIKE IT AND I AM NOT GOING TO WAIT ON SOMEONE TO FINISH.
NoNe Of ThIs
Those are the only rules.

Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on June 6
- Rewards: Gold: 300, Silver: 60, Bronze: 40
- Final notes: I got some really great entries. the winners did an amazing job! the stories that were the least cliche basically scored higher than the rest if you were curious! anyway after hosting this contest I really feel better. my dad just left my mom and it sort of gives me comfort to feel other people's pain and understand that my life is not the only life falling apart! silly i know but im glad i did this contest! great job everyone!
