OVERVIEW:

WOW! hosts a (quarterly) writing contest every three months. The mission of this contest is to inspire creativity, communication, and well-rewarded recognition to contestants. The contest is open globally; age is of no matter; and entries must be in English. We are open to all styles of writing, although we do encourage you to take a close look at our guest judge for the season (upper right hand column) and the flavor of our sponsor, if you are serious about winning. We love creativity, originality, and light-hearted reads. That's not to say that our guest judge will feel the same... so go wild! Express yourself, and most of all, let's have some fun!

WORD COUNT:

Maximum: 500

Minimum: 250

The title is not to be counted in your word count. We use MS Word's word count to determine the submitted entry's word count.

PROMPT:

OPEN PROMPT!

Last quarter we enjoyed reading your diverse stories, so we're doing it again! That's right, this is your chance to shine, and get creative. You can write about anything, as long as it's within the word count and fiction. So, dig out those stories you started way back when and tailor them to the word count.

We're open to any style and genre. From horror to romance! So, get creative, and most of all, have fun.
