✨The Guide for PBWA✨

Rules

The rules should be read and abided by without any excuses. This is something that is accompanied by any and every competition because some people just can't live with unnecessary chaos.

You'll be given three strikes before being blocked from this account. Depending on your misbehavior, you'll be blocked immediately. If you run out of strikes or is blocked immediately while being apart of the competition.

You will be disqualified.

The Rules:

1. You are not allowed to vote for yourself. You're allowed to enter two stories, but only if they're to a different category. No one is allowed to enter two of their stories to one category. Neither can you enter the same story in two different categories.

2. Bullying, threats or harassment are absolutely not tolerated. Anyone who is caught doing any of them will be immediately banned from the account and reported. This is a friendly competition and we'd like it to stay that way.

3. If your stories were placed 1st, 2nd or 3rd in one of our previous competitions. You're not allowed to enter it again. You are free to join the competition again, but it has to be a story that was not placed at any of the top three.

4. You're allowed to enter unfinished pieces of your work. However, in order to better your chances of winning we'd recommend having at least five chapters. Just so you have something to really captivate the readers 😌

5. No fan wars are allowed. Both groups are about expressing love for yourself and loving one another and if you support that. Then you should follow it as well.

6. Respect each other's opinions. You may not be happy with stories that are placed or the stories that win. However, you should respect the person/people who voted or wrote it. Writing is subjective and if you don't like what they have then write something yourself, and enter it into our competition.

7. You are allowed to pull out of the competition if you'd like too. It'll be sad to see you go, but we understand. Please just notify us of your requests and we'll pull your story from the competition.

8. If you have changed the title of your story or your username. Please inform us so we can make the necessary changes to match what you have on your profile.

9. You're not allowed to enter someone else's story. They must have a Wattpad account to enter if they wish to be apart of the competition.

10. This should be a clear red flag, but you're not allowed to plagiarize someone else's story and enter it as your own.

11. Finally, just have fun. This is the main thing we want you all to keep in mind when entering this competition. It's all for fun.
