A Walk Through The Park tells of an all too familiar love story to us all. The first date. This is a light hearted and partially humorous story that reflects quite well on the feelings of a first date, however does not go as in depth with its characters allowing a disconnect between the readers and its characters. On the contrary, this story makes up for its excellent use of visual descriptions and imagery which easily carries the story forward. (Also I apologize that the story is no longer on the contest page. A misconception was made. D:)8937Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6yE4dNyvP

The Widow And The White Rose is a historical romance story that tells of an romance of long ago to the time of kings and war. Instantly this story manages to capture you with its setting and grips you with its story and characters, however as the story progresses it loses its pace. The story has distractions and gets sidetracked from the main relationship presented that readers are mainly focusing on. Given the story is historical and the word limit perhaps barred the author from fleshing out this historical event further. Still, the story is a must read for the historical value and messages the story has to offer with relatable themes and tenseful moments.8937Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsxmLlRAcx

A compelling love story need not be long in order for it to be both captivating and interested. This contest is to challenge writers to tell the best love stories they can within the word limit given. Any types or genres are allowed so long as they tell a love story that is interesting! Your story may bet between a boy and a girl, two boys, or even two girls if you so desire. All stories will be judged equally and fairly, and will not have a huge focus on grammar and punctuation, but if the grammar distracts from your story then it may become an issue. However, other than that I encourage readers to have fun with this. I look forward to evaluating the many wonderful stories that will be presented.8937Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Z0Hxv7Lkv
