[OPEN] Some of us have applied to thousands of contests already, and often times, we haven't had much luck in getting any recognition. Sound familiar? Don't worry - we've all been there. We wanted to find a way to fix this... Thus, yourLOVEawards was born! Our team includes highly experienced writers and readers who have two goals: 1.) To help your story reach the recognition we know it deserves! 2.) To help you improve your story! There will be new contests every month, and each one will feature a different prompt in which you can enter your already-existing chapters into. But here's the catch - EVERYONE wins something! Just by participating in the contest, you will automatically get reads and comments from us. And at the end of each month, we will choose the chapters that we feel are the best written within the confines of that month's prompt. Those people will win EXTRA prizes! Even if your chapter isn't picked for that month, we're always willing to write out a critique for things you can improve on. Like we said, we're here to help YOU! Interested? Come on in! ☆ﾐ #349 in Random (5/26/17)
