Do you think i could win the CO-writer contest with this entry? Do you think i could win the CO-writer contest with this entry? ok so there is this girl on youtube, and i love her story's! and she told us that since her finals were coming up she needed a co-writer. she said we had to write the next chapter of her story and message it to her. do you think i could win with this entry? here's some info: its an abuse story and the girl [christy] just got knocked unconscious from her brothers hurting her so bad. and her parents got murdered years earlier. please be nice im only 13. ++++++++++++++++++++ christy's POV** I could see the colors, shining onto a frozen body, like a spotlight on a stage. The colors were white pink, blue, all were so beautiful. The body was to far away for me to see, it was blurry, but i could see it rise, going toward the light. As it got closer, it got clearer. I could see her hair, her face, her eyes..closed. Her face was full of cuts, as well as her arms and legs. She seemed to be firmiluar, yet she seemed so distant. Like a person you see in a crowd that you think you know but you don't. I looked closer, looked past her bruises, and her cuts. I saw the true girl, that was hiding behind the pain. It struck me. She was..me. I saw her floating, I suddenly saw the light from her eyes, my eyes. I saw two faces. Two faces I haven't seen in years. My parents. I didn't realise it until that moment, i was dying, they finally did it, my brothers murdered me! Half of me wanted to move on. Live with god, and my parents up in heavan. Away from the pain. But the other part of me, the part of me that could still feel the good in my brothers hearts didn't want to. That part of me was the part that confused me. After all they did how could I possibly forgive them. I can't, but so badly i wanted to! And even if i couldn't forgive them, which i probably won't, i still have my own life to live. I wanted to die, but so badly I wanted to live. I made my choice. With all my force I pushed down. Pushing away from the light! Heading down to the earth. I looked up at my parents faces, they were filled with pain. Probably because they knew that I was heading back to that house of hell. But I didn't let that stop me, i kept on pushing. Then out of now where the light vanished, and my room took its place. I stared at the ceiling. I felt pain everywhere. My brothers wern't there anymore, i knew this because I didn't hear any screaming. It took all my strenth to crawl to the window. I peered over the edge, looking into the drive way. There were no cars, good. I stood up, and walked to the bath room. I grabbed a wash cloth, wet it and put it to my face. It stung, stung like hell. I threw the cloth into the sink, and looked at my reflextion, i looked like crap, nothing new there. I didn't want to stare at myself anymore, i let my eyes wonder. I looked to the left, near the shower, somthing caught my attention. It was shiny and silver, my razor. I heared it helped with the pain. No! I have enough cuts. I looked away, but not for long. I let my eyes look back, and without warning my hand raized, grabbing for it. Suddenly I heared a car race into the driveway "crap" i muttered to myself. I limped to my room, turned the light off, and jumped into bed. I heared two footsteps clump up the stairs, one of the obviously a pair of heals. For once I was happy my brother was screwing some girl! I knew tommorow I would probably be in for it, I would go through hell. I was used to it, I yawned, I was so tired, but i was scared to fall asleep. Afraid the lights were going to take over again, but i was so tired. i prayed that night, I haven't prayed in a while. But after everything that's happened i couldn't help it. I need some sort of connection to something stronger than my brothers. And god was the only thing i could think of. ++++++++++++++= thx ahead of time!

I have no idea what to write about and most especially, what my plot would be... help please? the theme is: "Youth as a Catalyst for a Change" ok...lol additional details xD what does the theme mean? lol i really don't understand it completely :p

The winner gets their story published in the yearbook. It can be about anything but it has to be appropriate for school (obviously). I was just wondering if anyone could give me ideas.. I'm sort of in a writers block, but once I get an idea I find it easy to write about. Thanks ?

I have an idea for a really great contest that would help unknown song writers get noticed and I don't really know anything about what goes into setting up contest or anything in the music industry.

It is about my birthplace and my place of residence that I wish relatives, friends and tourists have to visit in the near future for a break. If none, it's okay. Hope there would be a free space in a magazine for printing for the reading public' sake.

If not when is the deadline and how and where do you enter your song,dose it need to be with music,in a cd,tape or what please explain all details to the best of your knowledgd. thanks

My child entered an art contest with an anime style drawing and was accused of plagiarism as the judges were looking over the art. They have not produced the 'original' artwork they say my child copied and refuse to retract their statement of plagiarism. It was in front of the others participating in the contest, and my child is 15 and was trying for a scolarship. I did not see them draw this paticular drawing, they were staying at their father's when it was produced, but have seen them draw many like it.

Ok, so i've entered the Children of Bodom Contest to win a Autographed Alexi Laiho AL-200 ESP guitar and other stuff. what i wanna know is: How will i know if i win?

I am very interested in writing. A lot of the things I write are said to be inspiring. I love to write anything like poems, songs, stories, my personal views, etc. The only problem is that I CANNOT be stuck writing something im told to write about like most writers jobs are. Is there such thing as a freelance writer, or creative writer, and how do I become one? How do I gain income with it?

I'm interested in finding out if anyone with any indigenous Hawaiian blood is writing about the islands in a meaningful, literary way. I know publishers are trying to dictate what writers should write to increase sales, but is there anyone out there in Hawaii who really cares about the Hawaiian people and is bringing out their stories? I suppose the writer would have to know Hawaiian fairly well and use it in the text of the book. I can't seem to find anything on the web, so maybe you can help. Mahalo.

This question is for any avid readers, aspring writers out there like myself, or any full blown authors out there who may be answering. I read a review which said that it's hard to avoid cliches when writing a story with a protagnist who is a writer, but the review never really went into depth about this. I was wondering if anyone knew what the cliches are. I would really like to know since I am curently composing a story about a writer.

I think it's jonny quest but im not sure. It was an old cartoon that had two creatures in it. One was a blue blob and the other was something similar Momo from the last airbender.

I remember a few years ago I was really into this one online cartoon. It had something to do with a cactus. I remember parts of some of the episodes. there was a crime scene and all of a sudden he finds A1 steak sauce and his cell phone goes off. another part: "I'm to sexy for the window, to sexy for the window..." any help or idea of what this cartoon might be is awesome. thanks.

All the sites that I have discovered, have a catch. After you go through the trouble of trying to submit a picture. They then tell you, one can submit so many pictures for free, AFTER you "subscribe to this or purchase that" Would like to find a true "baby picture contest without any catches". Thanks

I truly have a baby worthy of being a model. But when I enter baby contests,I upload pictures and they want money from me for pic processing. Is there a way I can get my baby discovered without coming out of pocket?

Just wanted to let everyone that wants to be in the baby picture contest to get their pictures ready. I'll be starting the contest in a few hours when I get back from lunch. I guess this isn't really a question..okay so to keep my butt from getting reported, here's a question for you: What's your favorite nursery rhyme? :-)
