THE
“DONE” Short Story Contest
•Do
you have what it takes to write a perfect short story? Me either.
So we’re not going for “Great.” We’re going for “Done.”
•Rules:
•Your
character is an insecure traveler who is obsessed with obtaining something in
particular. You get to pick what they’re
obsessed about.
•An
ancient ruin in the middle of a forest.
Any place, any time, doesn’t have to be our world.
•Your
character is about to get married to the wrong person (whether they know it or
not).
•Story

midnight Wednesday, April 24
•Prizes:
•$50
Amazon Gift Card for first story received.
•Two
$25 Amazon Gift Cards drawn from all stories received by deadline.

other judging will be performed.
Goofy? Serious? Planet destroyed by aliens, the end? All we care about is done!
•The
point of all this?
•To
help motivate people to write, finish what they write, and submit what they
write (look up Heinlein’s Rules sometime).
•To
take perfection out of the equation and just have fun!
