Q. I already have a story written. Can I enter that?

A. No. Sorry, but all stories entered into this contest must be original, and written exclusively for this contest.

Q. I've written my story, but it's over 5000 words! What should I do?!

A. Trim it down. Only stories up to 5000 words will be accepted.

Q. Can I write fan fiction?

A. Yes.

Q. I don't like any of those 'punk' subgenres. Can I create my own?

A. Sure, as long as you can define it and it's recognisable as a 'punk' subgenre.

Q. Are self-inserts allowed?

A. No, sorry.

Q. Can I use more than two 'punk' subgenres?

A. Yes, you can use as many of them as you like.

Q. I'm not from the United States! Can I still enter this contest?!

A. Yes. This contest is open to anyone and everyone, anywhere in the world.

Q. I struggle to write in English. Please please please can I submit an entry in another language?

A. Sorry, but no. You can write your story in any language but if you write your entry in a language other than English, it must be translated to be considered eligible.

Q. One of my characters has a bit of a potty mouth. Is that OK?

A. As long as you don't overdo it, it's not gratuitous and is all in context, then feel free to make full use of the English language.

Q. Should I tag my story #PunkWars?

A. Yes, you definitely should do that. However, it's not mandatory to do so. Providing your entry is submitted via this form [also available on the previous page] it's all good.
