MCWC XVII Submissions/Nominations Thread
Monthly Creative Writing Competition:
MCWC XVII
This is the submission/nomination thread for MCWC XVII!
Eligibility
Two updates are needed since August 1, 2017.
Only one entry per person.
The first place winner in the previous competition cannot enter this one.
Only work that is posted on TWC is eligible to enter.
Writers' Study Staff have discretion to disqualify nominations where it would be unfair to allow them to enter, for example in cases of plagiarism.
If you have a question or want to check whether an entry is eligible, please send a private message to a member of the Writers' Study Staff.
Advertising
Advertising the competition is allowed. Inviting people to submit their writing is okay.
Asking for votes for a particular submission is not allowed and will result in disqualification.
Breaking the rules will result in measures at the discretion of the Writers' Study Staff.
Submissions
Authors are encouraged to submit your own work.
To enter, post on this thread with the following: the author's name, the title (with a link to the thread) and a short description/teaser.
