Hey everyone! This is Haredrier representing the Fantasy/ Worldbuilding Club, here with a contest for all you writers! This will be the first in a series of worldbuilding contests, each designed to help you flesh out your fictional worlds and maybe help you with others in the future.
The goal of this contest is, well, worldbuilding. Every two weeks I'll post a new topic related to worldbuilding, and during the course of the first week people can submit their entries. So far I have 24 possible topics written down, so I don't really think there's any fear of running out for quite a while. The following week will be for voting. Even people who didn't contribute to the topic can vote for the entry they liked best. In case of ties, I can vote as well, but otherwise I'll mostly stay impartial.
The same fictional world must be used for future rounds as well. It has to be the participant's original universe, because that's just fair. It can be one that they've written about before, or it could be one made up for the sole purpose of entering these contests. If your world doesn't fit into the categories that a week asks for, you don't have to enter that week. You won't be disqualified from future contests.
For the first round, we'll keep it simple. You'll have to write a general overview of your fictional world. This should include genre/ style of world (fantasy, steampunk, sci-fi, dystopian etc.), as well as a short description of it. Don't worry about going into too much detail about things like geography or culture, we'll get into those in future contests. Just post your short description here to enter.
As for judging, that will start next week after I announce submissions are closed. Until then, get to writing, I'll be waiting to read each one!
