The world is ending, things are falling apart around you. You turn to the person closest to you, be it your lover, friend, a family member or total stranger. In that moment, just before oblivion you mutter these words....

Basically, to sum up my dramatic opening, write a sentence or two of the things you would say if you knew your life (and the world)was about to end in a few moments time.

Try to make it as interesting as possible! It can be serious, funny or even just plain stupid. Have at it people! No more than one paragraph and three entries please~

Hey guys! This contest is going to be very different from the last one that I hosted!

I will begin the story and the last line, which will either be inbold,italicsor underlined will show were the next writer will pick up and resume.

Entries can be no longer than 200 words.And you cannot post two entries consecutively, with the maximum entry number being three.

When we reach ten entries, in the next five issues, we will need to try to wrap things up and tie up loose ends.

Best and most well written entry wins at my pick.

Hope that made sense?

Lets go:

I could feel her gaze upon me... With those thick, black, soulless eyes that always seemed to bore into my being; as if she knew what was going on inside my head.

So we hear a lot of quotes said by people and try to relate ourselves with it. But can we make a story out of a quote? Hmm...

Now, that requires some serious imagination and creativity.

Well, if you like a little bit of twist then join this contest and let your creative juices flow! You have to make a story on any one of the following quotes (don't worry these are popular quotes and you must have heard of at least one):

1. You can do anything, but not everything.—David Allen

2. You must be the change you wish to see in the world.—Gandhi

3. When hungry, eat your rice; when tired, close your eyes. Fools may laugh at me, but wise men will know what I mean.—Lin-Chi

4. Everyone is a genius at least once a year. The real geniuses simply have their bright ideas closer together.—Georg Christoph Lichtenberg

5. Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.—Oscar Wilde

6. Sometimes I worry about being a success in a mediocre world.—Lily Tomlin

7. The person who reads too much and uses his brain too little will fall into lazy habits of thinking.—Albert Einstein

8.I am patient with stupidity but not with those who are proud of it.—Edith Sitwell

9. The best way to predict the future is to create it—Abraham Lincoln

10. If we wait until we're ready, we'll be waiting for the rest of our life—Lemony Snicket

Word limit: 1000 to 2500 words

Usage: You must use that quote at least once in your story as a punch line or in between talks, anything.

Requirements: If you cannot create a story based upon the quote then just use it as a line said between dialogues, but it should make sense. The title of your story should be the quote you're using.

Deadline: Since its a difficult task, the deadline is 4 weeks.

Judging: By me

Rating: G

"It was a dark and stormy night."A simple sentence, yet a powerful indicator. Write a story, poem, or song that begins with this sentence. No word limit- let your creativity flow!

Sometimes inspirations for your writing may come from things you hear.

It could be just any kinds of sound you will hear in your life, but how about it is some popular song you hear on the streets, at school with your friends, at a cafe, or even through your earbuds from your iPod!

As a heavy music lover as well, I frequently thought of stories based on music, and mostly it was about thinking of a music video scenario for it all by myself. One day, when I was listening to one of BIGBANG [just to note: my all-time favorite K-pop group! Yup you can call me VIP haha :)]'s newest songs which were released in last year from my cell phone, one sparkling thought came into my mind....OH, WHAT ABOUT WRITING A STORY ABOUT THIS SONG....wait, HOW ABOUT WRITING A STORY FROM K-POP ITSELF?

Since I am a very busy person and cannot think of all stories from all songs from a single brain, I decided that I need your help and ideas in order to help me out completing this somewhat time-killing project-like thing into action. So, just come over and have fun with writing over any K-pop music you like even if you don't like K-pop:) And.....for you K-pop lovers over there.......come on! Don't be shy! Kill two birds with one stone by writing stories and listening to  your favorite team's song!

So everybody, these are the rules;

Who to write: Everyone who got ideas and love K-POP or anyone who just wants to write stories from new music!

What to write: ANY KINDS OF FICTION INSPIRED FROM A PARTICULAR K-POP SONG[I MEAN, REALLY ANY SONG AS LONG AS IT'S K-POP!].....or two, if you like:)

[Note: ALTHOUGH I settled the rating cutlines as PG-13, symbolic or metaphoric claims of sexuality, violence, or other 'adult' issues are okay!]

When to write : Any time from February 22  to March 7(GMT +9 Zone) [That gives you two weeks so I think that will be enough!]

How to win: Mainly based on choice of the organizer-that's me:)-but like counts will be considered! I just mentioned that I like BIGBANG, but it doesn't mean that I will only look for works done based on their song so don't worry! I am a quite fair person and you can guarantee:)

What you get if you win:

1st place- An audio-drama version of the winning story [which means that I will record your story and send it to you again] and held it on my Naver blog [address will be told later] with a Korean translation

2nd place- A story fan art of the winning story with a quote from the choice of the organizer written on the side

3rd place-  A word document version of the winning story with some pictures of your group attached as inserted pictures

Additional Good News: NO WORD COUNT PEOPLE! WRITE AS LONG AS YOU WANT!!

That's it. Enjoy your writing guys! I'll be happy to see all of your entries two weeks later:)

Hi!:) I came across some illustrations by a Korean artist today and thought it might be nice to create a contest with the theme Love - I was hoping to make this contest into something like a scrapbook...one which you may all want to look back sometime!

Here is an animated short film made by the artist showcasing some of her illustrations:

For the contest, feel free to write a sentence or a short paragraph around the theme, or you can submit a sketch or a simple doodle about your thoughts too! Any kind of love is ok! If you would like to write/draw about family love or love for a much treasured toy, I would love to hear about it as well!

Below are some links which I bumped into earlier today - I hope they will help with your writing/doodling!

This one shows a kickstarter project which the artist is funding for her art book publication:

The following one shows some of the artist's selected drawings featured in a Korean magazine:

And this last one shows a heartwarming portfolio of the artist's illustrations and projects:

I'm not sure if you would all like this contest...but I hope you will! :')​​

Your character suspects her husband is having an affair and decides to spy on him. What she discovers is not what she was expecting...

That's your prompt!

'An Affair' was just a title I came up with for this contest. You don't need to use that as your title.

Canyou use it as your title? Sure!

Since it's a short stories contest, I'll put the maximum word limit at 4000 words. Can you go over by a paragraph or two? Sure thing. Remember, just because the maximumword limit is 4000 words, doesn't mean you can't write something as short as two sentences if that's what you enjoy writing.

Judging will be community vote - like count.

Looking forward to reading your stories and HAVE FUN WRITING!

Create a short story, any length or genre, from the following prompt!

Prompt:"They never taught us that​ in driver's ed!"
