Doing It Write! – The Larissa’s Life Creative Writing Contest!
Have you ever reached the end of a novel or a book series and thought that you could have come up with a better finale? Have you ever felt that you had a better idea as to how that series you love should have ended even if you enjoyed the original conclusion? Have you ever felt that your favorite book just needed a couple more pages or an epilogue with a little more of the Happily Ever After?
Well guys, here is the thing… the other day I woke up out of nowhere with this crazy idea that I thought might be a bit farfetched… However I am happy to say that it isn’t so anymore and that I get to share it with you and even offer you a very cool new contest! YAY!
This little blogger here did not misspell anything on the title or on the image above… I meant to write “Write” and not “Right”, Why? Because this will be a creative writing contest; well, to be more specific it’s a creative re-writing contest….
To Enter:
You have the chance to re-write history! Take that novel that the ending disappointed you or your favorite series that you feel could have had a bit more meat in its conclusion and RE-WRITE the way you feel like it! You have between 250 words and 1500 words to put your vision into words. You can even write a detailed summary as to how the ending should have been, or an extra dialogue or love scene you wish had happen at the end… Go nuts!!!
The Prizes:
1st Place: 20$ Gift Certificate at an Online store of your choice!
2nd Place: Two books by Claudia Gray - Evernight & Stargazer
3rd Place: Bone Magic by Yasmine Galehorn
