Member Mini-Contest: View from Above

Details

Deadline:Jul 25, 2012
Fee:Free

Tess Pfeifle and her group Imprints of the Mind want to look down at the world from above and see something truly spectacular. Helicopters, clouds, the backs of dragons, whatever you can think of for your main character to see from the sky. Are they looking at a parade? A military strike? Anything that leaves a definite impression. There are a couple of rules though:

  • Entries must be fewer than 1500 words.
  • You have to critique two other entries in the contest to be eligible.

These mini-contests happen fast, but the prizes are glorious. Tess is offering up 7.5 karma to the 1st place winner, 5 karma for 2nd place, and 3.5 karma for 3rd place. With karma like that on the line, it's hard to ignore. To the clouds with you!
