Scarlett's Monthly Writing Contest

Novel By: Sexy Scarlett
Other


Tags: Contest


Prompts are posted the first Tuesday of every month and submissions are due by the third Tuesday (on the appropriate contest 'chapter').

Please chose one genre AND one inspiration from the options on the first page to create your own personalized prompt. Both unfinished and old work are accepted (just chose the closest genre & inspiration).

Please see Chapter 2 for “Rules & Guidelines” and post your questions there. Most of them are hopefully already answered.

**I’ve reworked this after the first contest and lots of questions. I think it’s less complicated now. Good luck! I apologize for repeating the "1 genre & 1 inspiration" thing everywhere, but people still aren't doing it. View table of contents...
