Battle of the Writers

•Getting started•

Let's get right to it, shall we?

1. Cheating
The use of Google or any other helpful website is banned for answering questions like which episode is which.

Plagiarism is illegal, as most of you need to understand. If I present a prompt to you, I will make sure it is not copied and pasted from someone else. I don't want to believe you would ever do that, but it does happen.

2. Disqualification
Those who disobey rules, criticize anyone else, constantly swear, cheat, etc will be disqualified from these competitions.

3. Suggestions
Once people get the hang of this, this chapter may be used for suggestions. Say you want to write about a certain topic, suggest that to me in the comments and it might just make its way in here.

4. Three strikes
If you do things that I have specifically told you not to do, you will receive three warnings to stop before I permanently ignore all of your entries and/or comments.

5. Judging
After a prompt goes up, I will give you 3 hours ( more or less depending on my schedule for that day) before I begin judging.

Keep in mind that you may be my friend, but I am not biased in any way. You will not be presented with any special perks, so don't ask.

6. Questions
I am ready and willing to listen to any questions you might have, and I am more than happy listen to your ideas.

7. Interests
Those who have read this far and are interested in participating, please comment 🇭🇺

8. Updates
If this book is a success, I will most likely update it once or twice a day. If this book is not a success and very few people participate, this book might be deleted.

9. Entries
Most of the time, I will give you a subject and ask you to write a short story about it. It must be all one comment, if that gives you a general idea of the max length.

Please use correct spelling, spacing, grammar, capitalization, etc. If your entry does not contain those, it has a very low chance of winning.

You will be judged on many things, like length, quality, my thoughts while reading it, and more. Keep that in mind.

10. Third-person
I'd prefer for your entries to be written in third-person, but I will accept first-person sometimes.

11. Swear words
Please refrain from swearing constantly throughout your entry. At most, I'll except 3 minor swear words such as ass, shit, hell, and damn.

12. Mature content
No. No mature content what-so-ever. I don't mind romance, but if it goes past kissing on the neck, it will not be accepted.

13. Genre
I'll accept nearly any genre; Fanfiction, horror, historical fiction, random, etc. I enjoy reading about OCs and original stories, but I love a good Fanfiction.

14. Fanfiction
Keep in mind, I don't know about or watch or read all the same things you do, so please ask me before submitting a Fanfiction that I will not understand.

15. Details
I encourage you to use lots of detail in your story. I want to be able to picture every moment in your story in my mind. That would make it that much better.

16. Prompts
Not all of the chapters and competitions will be writing prompts. Some will be battles, hence the name of this book. I will allow people to rant about why books are better than movies, why one ship is better than the other, and more.

17. Limits
I will shut down ANY battle if it goes far enough to hurt someone's feelings or to bash someone's opinions.

18. Other
If you think I've missed anything that should be added, please inform me.

Have fun! Good luck! Enjoy! May the odds be ever in your favor.
