Hey @defyingravity01, offering prizes for a contest is indeed against YWS rules. However, this contest is an official contest sponsored by YWS. As it is sponsored by YWS instead of by a user, the rules are a bit different as I'm sure you can understand.

Having an Amazon account isn't necessary to receive the gift card. But the winner can choose to receive a gift card from somewhere else provided I'm able to order it online.

Sorry Alex, but I'm not the person to ask! @Elinor%20Brynn is running the contest. You'll need to ask her :)

Edit

Looking at what Elinor wrote earlier, submit any entries to her via PM!

It should be a fiction short story.

And you all have until January 31st to PM me your entry. After that, submissions will be closed and judging will begin. And I will get the results back to you guys as soon as I can after that.
