This is a simple contest. I'm going to start out with the rewards you will receive simply by participating.
- You will receive an upvote by me of a post of your choosing(present or future post)
- You will receive a resteem by me of a post of your choosing(including future post)
- You will receive SBD from me.
There are no losers and there are no winners. However some will receive more in way of SBD.
Here's How It Works
This is a contest targeted at creative writing, specifically writers of fiction. The contest will measure how quickly you can put ideas together and how many words you can put out in a certain amount of time. In the case of this contest the allotted time will be 20 minutes
To enter the contest and start the timer you will post in the comments. Something like "ready!"
I will then respond to confirm that you are still ready at your computer. Respond again to confirm.
I will then give you a setting, character, and problem.
Example: (setting)Meadow, (character)dog with ADHD, (problem)dog is lost
Once I have replied with the setting, character, and problem then the clock starts. You will have 20 minutes to write on the provided prompt and post it as your reply.
MAKE SURE YOU POST YOUR FINISHED CONTENT AT THE END OF THE 20 MINUTES
You'll want to write as much as you can because part of determining the amount of SBD you will receive will be mostly based on word count. The more words, the better.
I understand that quantity and quality are mutually exclusive when it comes to prose, but this contest is about SPEED!
Other factors to determine SBD payout:
Coherency - How well I can understand what's going on?
Flow of Words - How well do your words and sentence structure flow?
Content - How creative and entertaining is your content?
Don't worry about typos or minor grammatical errors. This is about writing content, not editing content.
This contest is for fun, strengthening your WPH(words per hour) as a writer, and to provide an opportunity for your posts to receive more exposure.
UPDATE: For re-entries: You can re-enter the contest once per day. You will receive a TOTAL of 1 upvote and 1 resteem no matter how many re-entries. However, of all your entries your SBD payout will be determined by the entry with the highest word count(WPH). So participants have a chance to beat their old number for further gain.
This contest will run for the full 7 day post session.
Let the words begin!
