Sorry; I hadn't noticed this question! You may do so. 
This contest will most likely be extended. Write more; the prizes are huge. Tell me if you are interested, and PM me if you'd like an extension. Hurry!

Hey JFW, I know I told you in chat I'd try and enter. But I don't think I can have an entry ready for you. I'm really very sorry. I just have too much going on right now. I decided to let you know before hand.
I hope you understand. |

No problem. I do this plenty of times - life gets in the way.
If you'd like an extension, let me know. If not, that's fine too.
Thanks for trying!

Hey  This is a tough contest haha
In your example story the sideline is only touched on very briefly, is this what you want for the entries or does it have to be more contact than two short viewings ??
XxxDo |
As much as you would like. As long as I see some story for them, it's fine. I can learn it in ten views, or one.
Pretty much write a story and stick some random background character in there.

As of right now, yes. I'll come in and edit the information later. I'm not sure what I'll do here - I have no entries.
Enter, people! I'll give extensions.

Haha, yeah, I'll still award prizes even if only one person enters. But you'll only get on prize, not all three.

| Ooh. I have a new incentive to enter. If not many people do enter, my (extremely crappy) story might win something! Let's see if I can find time to edit while finals take over my life. |

NewWriter, you read my thoughts (though my own personal finals are over! Ha!). And so do you, Sock. It’s quite sad, actually, but amusing nevertheless.
But yes, I’m posting this because when I come back tomorrow and see this, me writing an entry will be inevitable. Even if my blood will run cold upon seeing this - so much for ambition.

You all have until the 15th. Submit soon! There are very few entrants, so you have a great chance of winning.
Just post something on the site when you get it and link it here. I won't look at it until the 15th, and then you don't need to worry about not getting it up in time. Plus you get to use the critiques to fix it up!

Three days left.
And only three entries? Come on, guys - don't pass up a chance for 7 critiques and 500 points. It's so easy. You'll have a 1 in four chance at this point!
