This is my fourth contest, and I am really exited to have racked up the points for it. I Love having contest, and I think because it's summer now, people will enjoy this one.
I would like you to write me a short story or poem, about a storm, it can be one you imagined, it could be something that you remember, or has great meaning to you, and it happened while in a storm, it can be based on a movie that had a storm in it, such as The perfect Storm, Twister, another movie with a storm in it, anything about storms I will love.
Or if you don't wanna write about weather... write about poem about a personal storm, between you and someone else, that would be really cool too.
Write about the clearing of a harsh storm, either with weather, or your life... but use it as like a metaphor...
If you want to read my poem about storms that inspired me to hold this contest go to my poet page, and Click on poem; Storm of lost innocence.
OK now the rules
1. profanity is OK, but not too much of it, be tasteful
2. if it's going to be erotic, not too much, I am 16 and I don't think the site would like that, and don't put it under erotica... I actually want to read the poem!
3. Use some big words, that will make me have to go to dictionary.com so I can understand it, i need to expand my vocabulary...
4. please use spell check
OK have fun
350 Pt's ST
100pts 2nd
50 pts 3rd
I will be giving 40 points to the person that comments the most on my works and others in this contest... I go through everything and give you a check on everything you comment on...
I will also be giving you points if you refer this contest to a friend. three points for each referral, just I'M with the person you referred, oh and they have to enter the contest too...
easy point people
I know you can do it!

This looks like a great contest to me. I love electrical storms. Love to lay in bed and listen to them. Or sit in and watch them. I also love snow storms as long as I don't have to drive in them. I hope to come up with something for your contest. I will book mark it. Just so busy with the contests of my own....well....you will find out. Have fun with your contest. Cheryl

this looks like a good contest, I've entered two of my storm related prewrites... might do a fresh one, if you allow more than two per person.

Wow! What a busy background. Perfect for the subject matter you are seeking. Okay, well let's see what we can come up with. It sounds like it could be fun as well as interesting.

This looks like a great idea for a contest! Best of luck, I hope you get wonderful entries, and have a lot of fun reading and judging. No promises about entering though!

Great contest! "Storms" have been a great source of excitement and entertainment to me since I was a young child out dancing in the rain! I've always loved the rain, the awesome flashes of electricity lighting up the dark sky, and the powerful boom and rumble of the thunder that follows. Magnificent! Thanks for sponsoring this contest, I will enjoy this, whether I win a trophy or not. Reading the entries is a reward of its own!
Best wishes,

Mmmm, storms, yippee!!
Man, just the contest for me, I LOVE storms!!
And it really is perfect timing (in some ways for me) as here it currently is thundering out, and has been frequently over the past week!!
But this summer has been really really hectic for me and my writing and computer time are very limited now, so I can't guarentee anything for you here, but I hope you get lots of amazing entries, and have fun!!
Good luck
Christine

I would like to thank Mishielle for choosing my poem "by candlelight" for first place. I am so excited! My first gold trophy! Thanks so much!
-
Congratulations to the other winners... I tried to read all the entries, there was some stiff competition in this. I bet she had a tough time judging.
-
I see I missed this. Well, good job to all who placed, and to everyone who entered, !!
Christine
