Contest: Tell me about your character!

I enjoy reading about other people’s characters and I enjoy seeing people at their creative best. With that in mind, I’ve decided to hold a contest. I will be judge, jury, and executioner, so you have no one to please but me. ;)

First Prize

Second Prize

Third Prize

I hope that whets your appetite.

Here’s what I want from you:

  • A name
  • A race (if the setting allows races)
  • A backstory

Each backstory must include all of the following elements:

  • Danger
  • A Big Win or a Close Win
  • A Big Defeat or a Close Defeat
  • Monkeys (optional but encouraged)

Please try to keep the backstory down to one or two pages if possible. I will read longer stories but I would prefer them not to be in novella format. ;)

That’s it. The contest will run until midnight on Monday, September 1, 2008, and I will announce the winners by Wednesday, September 3. I will also post all entries on this site unless you specifically ask me not to.

So good luck to everyone and let’s get creative! :D

E-mail me your character!
