I'm sure that everyone knows that with a story contest, there will be rules. It's only natural and I sincerely you all will follow them in order to be accepted. Please note that I will be checking if you followed ALL rules. 

If you have any questions or concerns, please PM this account or my main DeannaHellerErskin. When you sign up for this contest, it means you understand and will follow the rules without complaint. If I do not answer your PM within an hour, message my main or try again. 

1. Please follow this account TheGorefiendAwards and my main DeannaHellerErskin. You will need to follow them when I put out notifications. Do not worry, I will follow back on both. Think of it this way; two free follows. 

2. Add this contest to BOTH your private and public libraries for updates. 

3. When your judge is announced, please follow them. 

4. Do not bribe your judge. That means no PMing them, sending emails, or any other form of communication to them that has anything to do with bribing or harassment. If you want to have a simple conversation, you may as long as it doesn't concern this contest. 

5. You story MUST be in English. I might understand other languages, but some of the judges do not. 

6. Your story CANNOT contain smut or incest. Some judges may not be comfortable reading stories with smut or incest. *This is mainly for my benefit since I dislike both*

7. Have at least 3 chapters. If not, you cannot be accepted. 

8. Your story must not glorify rape, substance abuse, incest, smut, self-harm, or underage relationships. 

9. If you enter, you have a maximum of 3 books but different genres. If you choose to judge, you cannot judge a category your story is in.

10. Treat others how you want to be treated!


Please note that the judges will be reading your story because they want to promote you and themselves. If they decide to put reviews or in-line comments in your story, please know that whatever they say will not be to be mean to you. They want to help you just as I want to help you. As for the password; there is a trick. Please inbox me with a smiley face.

Forms will be released tomorrow. 

Also, another shout-out to KaylaKeifer for her wisdom and help.  

PLEASE NOTE THAT I'M NO LONGER ACCEPTING ENTRIES!
