Hi hello hey there. I'm here with my second writing contest, don't worry my first one is still on going but no one else has really joined so...I decided to put the skeleton up for my second one. Don't let the title fool you, the lyrics are good and I'm sure you can come up with something from them
Now, just as I stated before, you DO NOT have to be a fan of the band or even know who the band is, to participate. If there's a lyric you like, just use it to come up with a story. Sound good? Yes.
Onto the rules.
Rules:
1) All Mibba rules apply.
2) Fanfiction and Original fiction are acceptable. [No true stories, sorry]
3) Hetro, slash, femme slash, genderswap, transgender, etc...all are acceptable.
4) Any rating is fine, just make sure it complies with your story.
5) Smut and fluff are perfectly fine.
6) Please use proper grammar.
7) Please have a readable layout. It can be made by you, pre-made or made by someone else...as long as it's readable. If you don't know how to make a layout, ask someone nicely and I'm sure they'll help you out...hell you can even ask me and I'll help you out.
8) Trigger warnings are fine. Anything goes. As I said before though, if you're uncomfortable with it, don't write it just because I'm comfortable with it.
9) Minimum word count: 300 Maximum word count: 1,000
10) Remember to just have fun.
