Category Number Two
Yup, that's right. I've got a Fan Fic Contest. Every so often I'll be changing the topic from which I'll ask all stories be written in that are to be submitted. I will ask that you not send any stories that are excessively long, say thirty or more pages or fifteen web pages. I will ask that there not be excessive language or graphic wording (mostly related to sex but can be expanded to beatings if the passage is too graphic for the general public). Submitting any stories containing either of these instances is grounds for disqualification.
I’ve decided to open the topic to all of Greater New York City for this contest. You can enter stories from every borough except Manhattan. Since the last contest was about Manhattan, I’d prefer if you didn’t submit stories about the Manhattan newsies. You can enter stories that have cameos of them, but I’d rather they not take place in Manhattan. This means that you can enter stories about Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island (formally Richmond Island but not changed to Staten until the 1960’s, I believe). Since Harlem, Midtown, Uptown, Downtown, the East Side, and every variation of any of these are all on the island of Manhattan, you can’t enter stories about them. If you’re debating whether or not your story falls under the category, please email me and ask if it works or not.
I reserve the right to make up any categories other than these if I see fit. Of course, with some topics, some of these categories may not fit, but it's what I came up with. There will be at least two awards, first and second place,
for each category, more depending on how many entries there are.
If you disagree with any of these rules, please do not submit your story. If you send me your story, you have agreed to my rules. or use my nifty form
