 |
|
Write a remix version of one of Shakespeare’s famous stories. (Romeo and Juliet, Midsummer Night’s Dream, the taming of the shrew, etc…). It doesn’t have to be one of those, they are just an example. You can write it in whatever year you want, just make sure you can tell what it is based off of. If you prefer, you can write it in a poem version.
RULES:
1. Poems and stories only.
2. For stories: Make them at lease 750 words.
3. Poems: At least 100 words.
4. They can be as long as you want.
5. You can enter two works.
6. Must have it in by March 7th, results will be there by March 10th.
7. Be sure to title it what it is based off of.
Rewards:
1. 5 critiques of your choice
2. 3 critiques of your choice and 250 points
3. 1 critique of your choice and 50 points
 And the three runner-ups each get 1 critique of their choice. 
So, ready....get set....START TYPING!  |

| Question: If I were to do Romeo and Juliet, would it have to be set in that time period? Or could I have in happen in 2008? |
