Hello everyone! I've noticed that the contest section seems to be devoid of any actual contests... So I'll go ahead and give it a try!

Here's what you gotta do:

Create any piece of literature about your country.

You might be from USA, India, China, anywhere! But write something that relates to your homeland. It could be a haiku or a short story, even a brief description, whatever you please. There are no limits, just write away!

Good luck!

I'm giving you a list of words.

Glanceat the list. Don't Google or search up the definition.

Pickone and Thinkabout it, what does it speak to you?

Scroll down to the definition. Read the definition of the chosen word and Write.

You don't have to use the word but, you may if you wish to do so.

Try not to Pickanother word or learn the meaning before enlightening yourself to the word.

:) I wish you all good luck. Good Day.

Also, this is a second generation of a previous contest of mine.The first one has no selected winners yet but, they will be up by the latest of Saturday. A set of people enjoyed the first generation and I thought I'd make another s, more of you can join.

:) Thank you and Good Day to all of you!

Hiya! ^.^ As I promised here is the second contest of presenting months as characters.

This time I'll make it a bit tricky to keep up the fun:

-every writer gets 2 entries

-no word limits

-1 month per entry

The rest is up to you how you write it and present it. Please keep it PG-13 for the "innocents" out there. ;-)

Paper ready, pencil set, go!
