I am in. Unless the contest has a upper age limit. In which case, I would lobby for a veteran category. Let's call that Category For Old Writers Who Don't Pass Away (They Just Write Away).

 

[Yanal]

No age limit,insha'Allaah.

I am not good in Language skills especially writing , but I will give it a try, Do you decide the Topics? Or is it up to the members?

Mods are not allowed to take part?

It's more like I cannot even bluff and wing it in writing to save my life.

 

[Muezzin]

I'd love to enter. It's tradition.

Walakum asalam,

Everyone is allowed to take part,just comes down to who wishes to do so and has the time to do so.

 

[Woodrow]

At the moment I do not see where I would have the time. But I do hope many will take part.

 

[Flame of Hope]

There has to be a Nonsense Category.

I'll win that one for sure. With sister harb's help of course. My pen needs the smiley encouragement.

If the contest is decided by a poll vote, all members with access to the Creative Writing forum are potential judges.

Which is insanely cool.

Indeed!

As for the topic,it's what the majority of you decide it to be,insha'Allaah.

 

[IAmZamzam]

There wasn't a set topic last time.

If it's a short story contest again then I am writing a novel that will contain several short story-like chapters. Perhaps I could use one of them?
