Hello there.

Me and my chum Venombyte were just chatting about the closure of the last story. We've come to the conclusion that we need more writers... and since there are a lot more people on here than there were half a year ago, I think it's time to try and encourage more people to write.

So, we've come up with the idea of a short story competition... it's a nice little idea, that should get more people writing, so we have a good idea of their talents.

This also applies to the CURRENT writers. I.E. Me, Pb, Meka, Ant... so on. You can write a story too.

If you're interested in this, please state so below/above, so I've got a good idea of figures. Then... I'll think of what you can write about. :0)

My Grix! Might I say how stunning you're looking today ;) ;) ;)

So, will previous entries count? If not I'll just re-post my story, and I'm sure you won't want that!!!

Also, can we have more than one entry, as I have a staggering amount of revision sessions this year.

SR will support this competition with an EXTRA GAMEADAY PRIZE, if Grix sets it up in the Prime Forums, providing the Notables decide who the winner will be.

Grix must set the rules and the time frame for it.

Is a winner going to be announced or is it just an activity for us to get into?

Either way I don't mind.
