This is my 4th contest, and here is what I want:
-A poem or story about what it's like growing up in high school with a disability. It can be about any disability at all, no matter how severe or not severe. This includes mental problems as well.
-Or, you can write about a family member or someone else that's close to you who has a disability of any kind, and how what they go through affects or doesn't affect you.

Rules(because we all have to have them)
1. No Erotica. i don't see how this calls for it.
2. A little swearing is OK, but please label your work properly, and keep it to a minimum.
3. No bashing anyone, for anything. Automatic DQ if i see it. I really don't think i'll have to worry about it with this group, but i have to put it out there anyway.
4. Have Fun
If you have any questions, please feel free to message me
