Dash_Rogers 130 Share Posted February 11, 2012 A writting assignment I'm interested in completing... And one that I will probably complete! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neri 3590 Author Share Posted February 11, 2012 I'll add that in for you, I will pay 4th place with a stack of cookies, and just for you 5th place with a single delicious freshly baked sent to a mailbox nearest you cookie. On a side note, I am a collector of books and pay authors for the writings, feel free to find me and sell your works. Also a good chance to check out the library. That's very kind of you! There will be surprise consolation prizes for everyone, though ^_^. Also, i've added a footnote to the competition about your offer, Domain. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trazier 115 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Freya, does this have to be a short story? Would it violate the spirit of the competition if I threw down an epic with chapters and subplots and stuff like that, or should I try to keep it 'novella' sized if I decide to submit one?

Soran 11 Share Posted February 11, 2012 It can be anything. As long as it relates to LOTC lore in some way. It could be based IN the LOTC universe, IE: In Asulon. Or it could be the polar opposite - perhaps in the far future, on a dystopian world, where Mori own a evil corporate empire? (Oh god, that thought is horrific). Well you got the dystopia and mori part right about what I was writing. However its not a corporate empire....its much worse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
domainoft 191 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Thank you Freya, I hope you are doing well. I am sure this will be great entertainment. I wish I would have thought of it ages ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind reading a metric ton of writing, but it's more about the overall cohesion and final punch of the ending. Having a long piece could potentially be better, but it could also be a lot of waffle, which will hurt more than help overall. Short and snappy, but enough detail to get your teeth into :) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
domainoft 191 Share Posted February 11, 2012 One more post and I'll stop trolling for a while, Where should we post these stories and is everyone limited to submitting only one? I'm sure we would all agree that should a user be allowed to enter multiple entries that he/she would only accept a prize for there best to insure as many people are awarded for there efforts as possible. It would be so hard for me to choose just one entry...so hard. My suggestion would be everyone create a new sub-topic "Perhaps a Forum Mod could set this up for us" With this title ((Asulon Novella Competition - "Title of Novella")) Another reward, I am personally inviting all authors to Roger's Tavern in Alras after the contest for a party like Asulon hasn't seen yet!

Grabthar 185 Share Posted February 11, 2012 What if i just submit a single chapter of a much larger story. Something that on it's own fulfills all your needs, but makes you REALLY want to read more? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neri 3590 Author Share Posted February 11, 2012 What if i just submit a single chapter of a much larger story. Something that on it's own fulfills all your needs, but makes you REALLY want to read more? That would be fine, as long as there is a twist in the story somewhere. That is the theme of this competition! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samson Option 9652 Share Posted February 11, 2012 *grins with relish* Oh Ho' Ho' Ho'... I will ready my writing arm just for this ;) I do have to ask, just to double check, could I enter the Teutonic Order's Lore, the 'twist ending' was Hochmeister Gaius Marius abruptly dying of old age. I am willing to write new ones, that is why I am within this server in the first place! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
