Interactive Story Contest Rules & Guidelines

Hello Writers and Readers!

WRITERS:
Shortly, I will post the premise or 'book flap blurb' on which you will base your story. You may start your story wherever you like, when the character is born, when he dies, or anywhere in between - it's all up to you!

Following are the rules to the game:
1. You must base your story on the provided premise.
2. Please keep your entries clean, i.e. free from vulgarities, and bad language, etc.
3. Editing services will not be provided, so your entry will be posted exactly as you sent it; be sure it is just how you want it to be before you email it to me.
4. Your entry may be as short or as long as you would like to make it.
5. You can enter as many times as you like.
6. You may submit an entry at any time, whether you have previously submitted or not.
7. All entries will be listed as ANONYMOUS contributors to keep the game fair, but I'll keep track of your submissions so that I know who to award the prizes to.
8. Entries will be accepted from Monday through Sunday each week. You may email them to ali at aworkofheartphotography dot com.
9. Stay tuned for additional rules should I feel a need to add them!

READERS:
1. Voting will take place every Monday and Monday only.
2. You may vote as many times as you like.
3. Your votes will control the direction the story takes, so choose wisely!
4. You may post comments for the different entries if you care to do so, but keep it nice!
5. Please come back every Monday to follow the story and vote your choices!

There will be TWO PRIZES awarded for
the writer with the most votes
and
the writer with the most entries.
