You could go with something totally out there.

Like zombies evolve, and by the 5th generation they're running their own society far superior to ours.

I've got a few ideas for this, maybe I'll make michael jackson a zombie, lol

Pearl 05-25-2010 09:35 PM

I look forward to reading it.

Skykittykat 05-25-2010 09:38 PM

Ooh sounds interesting. I'll probably be taking part in this.

Pearl 05-25-2010 09:43 PM

Excellent!

There's a lot more interest here than in the writing forum. 3 responses in under 2 hours, whereas my writing forum thread has had 0 responses in 20 hours.

sadrain 05-25-2010 10:37 PM

Well, yeah, people dont check in there all too often, mayeb you should do it in contest section.

Pearl 05-25-2010 10:38 PM

I tried there too, but it's almost just as dead.

sadrain 05-25-2010 10:52 PM

Hm, I had such suspicioun. D: Sad, indeed. Post linkage in your signature?

----------

Probably tried that, too, didnt you.
Well, events are always good time to host contests. C:

Pearl 05-25-2010 10:56 PM

Indeedy. How long does it go on for? A week?

I'll try and get as many people interested as possible during this.

The deadline is July, but after this week interest will go right down.

ThyFaerieQueen 05-25-2010 10:56 PM

I've already got a few ideas, this will be fun. XD

Pearl 05-25-2010 10:57 PM

Wahay, another possible entry and a Royal seal of approval. xD

Not poetry. The writing used in a novel.

fairywaif 05-26-2010 09:20 PM

Sounds interesting. Not a genre I usually write in, but I guess I'll work on it once the event is over.
