Hey there,
It's Sparki with a story contest (again)! But this time, instead of just having you vote on a private story contest, you can actually participate (like it should be).
Theme: "Character Backstory"
Basically, I need a backstory, name, and personality for my character: a strange cat-creature. I have nothing other than they're design, so they're species, gender, age, etc. is all fair game. Here's what you can do:
Write a backstory for the character, explaining they're species, age, personality, name, and the place they live. If you want to add any OTHER (either ones that I made, or that you created off the top of your head) characters that have to do with they're story feel free to do that, but keep in mind that all characters in the story will belong to me.
As you can see, it's really not too hard. Just be creative and original, and see if you can win!
Oh right, I'm guessing you'll obviously want to see this character's design, right? Okay here:
And I guess you also want to know what the prizes are too, huh? Okay, okay! Gosh...here:
Prizes
1st Prize - Full-body, soft-shaded drawing of your Minecraft skin or OC (original character).
2nd Prize - Half-body, soft-shaded drawing of your Minecraft skin or OC.
And maybe you want to know how the entries will be judged? Gee wiz, fine...here!
Judging
Stories will be judged on:
- How original they are
- How well they fit the character
- How well written the story is
I really hope to actually get some people who want to enter, this is my first REAL writing contest that I've hosted...good luck, and thank you!
