Hello Steemians! @finleyexp here with SteemIt Fiction Game #1. This game (writing challenge) has been inspired by the @steemtrail#fictiontrail and by @dreemsteem who's recently asked if one of my flash fictions was part of a bigger story. In the comments, I said it wasn't. I've changed my mind.
So, what is this mysterious challenge you ask? This is a multi-part fiction writing challenge.
Authors may post more than one submission, but only one will be considered for a prize (in other words, no single writer will win all the prizes).
The Prompts
A. What happens when Matt wakes up in the hospital?
B. Retell the story from the robbers' POV.
C. Retell the story from the police officer's POV.
D. What led up to the robbery?
All submissions must be left in the comments of this post by 1/15/2017 3/15/2017. That gives everyone a week to write, post, and share their flash fictions.
The Judging
I will begin judging submissions on 1/16/2017 3/16/2017 and will post the winner's list on 1/22/2017 3/22/2017. If for some reason there's an insane number of submissions, the judging period will be extended and an update will be posted.
The Criteria
Author's ability to follow instructions: The Rules.
Storyline: did you keep with the story and the prompt?
Grammar: I'm not a Grammar Nazi, though I do expect an effort towards proper punctuation. The occasional comma splice will be ignored for the sake of sanity. A 1000 word run on sentence will likely be disqualified, unless there's an incredibly compelling reason for it.
Creativity: I'm here to write fiction and read fiction. I love a good story. Please let your creative juices flow.
Proof of Payment
When the winners have been chosen and paid, I'll leave an update with screenshots of the payments.
NOTE: As you can see from my wallet, I'm not a SteemIt Whale. This writing game is being offered because I thoroughly enjoy this platform and the community that is growing up on it.
