Like my last contest, participants will write a story where one of the main characters has to die. But, this time, the main characters have to be in a romantic relationship. You now have two choices:

1. One of the people in the relationship dies.

2. Both of them die.

It doesn't matter which point in the story a character has to die, but the story has to be at least 100 words and the limit is 1000.

(And yes, same-sex couples are allowed xD I got a few questions about that from my last contest.)

Have fun!

And please,make it tragic!

Write an original story, no specific subject, but the main character has to die. It doesn't matter which point in the story the character dies, but please,make it tragic!

Have fun! :)

Write a short story inspired by this year's Total Solar Eclipse. Did anyone see it?

No Word Limit.

Great topic for Sc-fi and Fantasy or Romance writers!

If a clock could count down to the moment you meet your soul mate, would you want to know?​

You are going to write a one-shot based on this quote. The one-shot will be about your character's timer hitting zero. The winner will have a story of their choice promoted in every way possible. Email, forums, I'll even post a link to it on Tumblr. Now get writing, because you have four weeks.

Like the title suggests, write a piece about why you smile. Is it a special memory, a friend, that certain song. Any length. Write it anyway you want, I just want to know what makes you smile

Despite living in a whole new environment, Chanwoo continues to write new songs and publish his works in his free time and enjoys playing the guitar at night when he is at home. Through composing various original songs, Chanwoo hopes to touch his fans with his unique voice and guitar playing, as music is something which he holds dear to his heart.

The theme of this special contest will be based on Chanwoo’s new original song ‘그런 날이 있어’. For this contest, feel free to write a short story or poem with the feelings you had whilst listening to the song – you can write about anything, it can be a short piece about a romantic story or an intergalactic universe far, far away, or even a poem about one special night when you couldn’t go to sleep.
