Document Z is an interactive Zombie survival story. Like many contests the writers will receive a prompt on what to write about. We have many exciting twists, turns and tricks up our sleeves and there will come something later on that is even bigger and more personalized later on, but for now we will start with what is planned for Season 1... so let me explain. The prompt for Season 1, Part 1 will have a character that will be given a setting, some clues and a goal in mind. Contestants will submit their results, based on the prompt and setting we give to the them.
From the submissions a winner for that part will be chosen and this will be joined to the Setting in the prompt to expand the story. It becomes CANON forever and you gain mention for that contribution.
Then Part 2 gets another prompt and that is added on. All writers now need to base their story on this amended timeline.
Each Season will have the big prize(s) at the end, while winning a Part in a season will reward you with a smaller prize of STEEM. There will also be a set amount of STEEM left over for the runner ups and for the people that choose to pre-register with us.
We have the Seasons reward being 5.07 STEEM ($30 USD value as of 01-24-2018) + 40% of the STEEM that
