Wumbo Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 It's 2013, and a lot of scary stuff is happening. Kim Kardashian and Kanye West had a baby. The government shut down... again. I turned 18 years old. Also, here's the Scary Story contest! Here's how it works: You PM good ol' Uncle Wumbo your short, spooky story, maximum 2000 words, and no minimum, but keep in mind that brevity is not always the soul of wit, eh? I will judge them for myself, and send them to the other two judges, where we will score them based on: Clarity Plot Originality and Spooky Factor. This year we're looking for real bone-chilling tales. If you choose to take a more humourous route, you may still score big in the other three categories, however. PM Wumbo your scary story by Friday, October 25. The results will be announced Halloween Night (when else?) Also, JCM and I are looking for a third judge to round out the panel, the caveat being of course that you will not be allowed to participate. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpongeOddFan Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Well, I won't force you. But hey, if you're the only contestant, you're guaranteed to win! does Canadian-related short fic counts, Wumbo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wumbo Posted October 19, 2013 Author Share Posted October 19, 2013 Canadian-related? Sure, as long as you wrote it. That's another thing that I feel shouldn't even need to be said, but may as well bring up: It has to be your own story. Stealing =/= cool. I may as well bring up the reward too. How's a treat bag full of 10,000 doubloons sound? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
