Might enter, I used to write a lot but not so much. I say might not out of a lack of enthusiasm but a seemingly unbreakable curse when it comes to finishing any peice, I just can't do it... none the less this should be interesting. Good luck to the rest of you anyway.

Who are the judges?
I can probably whip up something by Nov. It won't be fantasy though...

Rule #11: No bribing the judges!
paladin and wordmerchant are judges. If the 3rd wants to reveal themself on the thread, that's fine.
10 people have said so far they might submit something. That's great! I can't wait for the first one to arrive!

My sig comes from a game in which I didn't heed Blend's advice. So maybe this time I should. ~ Khellendros
I'm just going to have to come to terms with the fact that self-vote suiciding will forever be referred to as "pulling a JPK" now, aren't I? ~ JPK

Well, if I can convince one of my plotbunnies to give me a short story and not another damn novel, I'll be in.
Btw, does 'previously published' only mean published in a paying ezine, magazine etc, or published on your own blog as well?

I'll give it a shot, but I have the same inability to finish disease as 13. Hopefully this is enough motivation.

Emailed submissions can be as attachments (MSWord preferred) or inline, whichever is more convenient.
Gabriele, For your question of a work being published on a blog: was that work subsequently commented on by others, causing revisions or changes? Was that blog submission subjected to any editing from an outside source? Basically, if it is original unadultered work that you published on your blog, then I don't see why it could not be submitted here.

Can some kind moderator sticky this thread? That way people will be continually reminded and I'll achieve the fame and fortune that goes hand in hand with having a thread stickied.....
