This contest will run from 3/24/24 to 4/16/24!
Your objective for this contest is to team up in groups of two (you could write solo, if you'd like, but collaborating is heavily encouraged), and write a short story modernizing an existing Greek Myth!
An example: Imagine Medusa as a powerful CEO of a tech company or Odysseus as a captain of a spaceship navigating through the cosmos. Aphrodite could be a celebrity, Zeus could be the president, and Hera the First Lady. There's so many opportunities.
Disclaimer: A short story is exactly what it sounds like- a short story. It should be at least 1,500 words or 9,000 words max.
You will create a thread in this club and jot down your character templates, and notes for your story! That thread will also be where you submit your story!
I'd like to give out badges for participation and completing the challenge-- but I'm not sure yet. For now, I'm mostly going off points! Whichever group wins will receive 300 points per person. 2nd place will receive 100 points per person. Badges may be awarded for participation for other teams.
Here are a few things you'll be judged on:- Clarity of the story: what is the myth you are trying to modernize? It it clear enough to where we won't have to ask?
- Plot/Climax/Story Organization: How well does your story flow? Is it choppy or is it just right?
- Unique Characters: The more unique your story and characters, the more likely you are to win!
- Passing AI Test: Each story will be run through an AI system to remove any chances of plagiarism or uses of AI. If your story seems like it's generated by AI, or copied from the internet, you will automatically be disqualified. Let's keep this original!
Sidenote: To give everyone in this club a chance to participate, we need one more judge! If any of you would like to volunteer (you won't be able to submit a short story), please PM @Leya!
