Halloween Short Story Contest
I just love Halloween. So in the spirit of Halloween and just having a bit of fun, I'm hosting a writing contest. So here are the rules.
1. Entries must be MG or YA. Character ages between 9 and 18.
2. Halloween themed. No straight up horror. Sorry, I'm a total chicken when it comes to horror. Themes can be spooky, but not terrifying. Also keep it clean.
3. Word count 500 - 600 words. If it less than 10 words over the max of 600, that's fine, but no more. Same goes for the minimum word count.
4. Submission window will be from 9 am EST on Wednesday, October 14th to 6 pm EST Sunday, October 18th, 2015. You can e-mail submissions to sandysue89 @ gmail.com and I will post them on my blog. Please no early or late submissions or they won't be considered. Winners will be announced Thursday, October 22nd at 4 pm EST here on my blog and on Twitter.
5. Comments on the entries will be allowed as long as they're nice.
6. One winner will receive a $25 gift card to Wal-Mart, Target, Meijer or Starbucks. The winner gets to chose which one. Two runners up will receive $10 gift card to one of those stores as well.
7. Winners will be determined by me.
8. Entries may be limited at my discretion if too many entries are received. I will post here and on Twitter if I'm closing entries early. Also entries that don't follow the aforementioned rules will not be allowed. If anyone has any questions that can email me at the above address or find me on Twitter - @sandrapanting1 .
9. Please remember I'm doing this for fun. So please be kind to me and other contestants. If you disapprove of the way I'm running this, I will do what I can to address your concerns, but slamming me or other contestants will not be allowed. Sorry. I just want to keep this friendly.
10. Entries emailed to sandysue89 @ gmail. com should contain the subject line - Halloween Contest and any questions you may have can be sent with the subject line - Questions Halloween Contest. You also will need to include the title of your entry, your name, and your return email address. A Twitter handle will also help me keep track of things. No other personal information will be needed at this point such as address. I will be using the hashtag #HweenCon .
11. Contestants are limited to the continental United States. Sorry if this inconveniences anyone.
12. Suggested themes for the contest are Halloween party or parade, going Trick or Treating, haunted hayrides or houses, or even going to Halloween themed trip with family or friends. These are just suggestions. You can use one of these or make up your own as long as its Halloween themed.
