This is now the Official Poetry section of the contest. Please keep posts in here dedicated to it, there's another one for the Short Story section.

i think it's a good idea(hell, it's always a good idea). But i won't be competing this time. I don't have the time and frankly i've given up on writing in English. I'll still follow the competition if it is going to be held.

Bad timing here as well. Finals are eating my soul. If you wait a week or so, I'd be interested.

Well you can start now, but just give a later end date, so everyone has time.

What exactly does participating in the contest entail? Are there set themes? How does this work?

Ok, so far, the following are in:

Tlaloc (subject to time)
Carnifex (ditto)
unknownkadath666
Slayer Of Kings
Kathy
DevotedWalnut
Metalhead_Bastard
Mintrude
and me

Jaden, are you in? There are no set topics, Brahm, at least not if we're doing the poetry. Any ideas for the short story one? Do people want to do that (no-one said :rolleyes: ) ?

And there must be more. Misha? Kim? Ken? Cara? Charles? Craig? Lee? Caleb? Rhys? Any members of the Establishment willing to try their hand? Keep them coming in, and any ideas or suggestions, as well.

I'm writing a short story about nouns for a year 8 class. It's pretty cool, so I'll just use it as my contribution.

At the same time, you also come up with some of the funniest stuff. That Satan buttsex song was hilarious.
