I tend to ramble a lot, so most of my stories are at least 2-3k...I've got one that is sitting at 9k and has been for 8 years. And I don't remember where I was going plot wise, so I'll probably never finish it.

[Poggio]

Any thing I write has a bad habit of being angsty and full of tangents xD thats why I am asking. I would have to read something fluffy for a while inorder to write fluff. But ... I mostly read dark fiction.

[Quiet Man Cometh]

Then go somewhere else, plotwise.

[Fey]

I would, but it would require a looooooot of backtracking I think...and there's nothing wrong with angst. I can't seem to write it, though the one really short story with it I got out seemed to do quite well....

[Poggio]

xD man I can't wait I want to read your story Fey it sounds like its going to be nice and long and interesting.

[Fey]

oh god, I make no garuntees here folks! it's sorta rambly, and mushy, and it miiiiiiiiiight get angsty at the end...but not for long.

[Funkduder]

How long will this contest last? I want to get a ton of pearls first.

[Quiet Man Cometh]

I just write what I feel like. Angst, or plot, may or may not happen.

[Fey]

I've gotten quite a few already, I cant' imagine them ending it too early...though...tonight is ending for me, night all!

[Lucid:]

This event isn't lasting very long, so enter the contests while you can!

[Sadrain]

This is interesting. O:
Maybe considering I do not feel up to chatting, but need to do something, as I seem to not be able to sleep more than 4 hours, this is what I should do! xD

I wonder if we can alter small things in story descriptions of pictures... like the shade of girl's hair in picture 3... keeping it still red-ish, but just slightly different shade.

[Quiet Man Cometh]

Poetic-esque prose is alright I hope. Not sure I'm going to get a plot out with what's rolling around in my head.

EDIT: oh darn. I just noticed the word minimum window. That 1000 is the definate minimum is it?

There's no number 4 because Remmy can't count apparently |D;;;;

answering questions!

Quiet - If you're doing prose instead of a full short story, then you can do under 1000 :3 I just thought 1000 words was a nice amount to shoot for, since I wanted these to be more stories than drabbles and the like. But 1000 words of prose can be a bit much, I understand


Poggio - There's only the Trisphee site rating system which is 17+, so mature adult themes are okay, violence, cursing, blood, intimate situations, etc just no outright pornographic descriptions

Funkduder - It'll last as long as the event lasts, what Lucid said

Sadrain - As long as you don't, like, change major things in the image (like in the second one make them both aliens dueling to the death on Mars or something) then yes you can change minor details like that ~

And I think somone asked about combining pictures? That is okay as well, just let me know which two you're using

[Quiet Man Cometh]

Well prose is generally regular writing, but I'm thinking something more stylistic than a proper short story. I figure it would fall in the category of "scenes." I'll try for the 1000 and see if I get there. Would be good practice for me.

[Fey]

:: waves hand:: combining pictures was me...and I'll have to tackle the next bit(closed the window at 1500 words last night) when I get home from work. apparently my writing muse has been long neglected if how fast he took off is any indication.

[Rem]

Oh nice! It takes me a bit to get into a writing groove, it's always stiff when I start out..but aww poor neglected muse. All the writing contest we're holding this event ought to keep him happy 8D
