March Fiction Writing Contest

Yes, really good job everyone! You all should be very proud of yourselves as you are all amazing writers.

I'm just going to echo this as it summarily describes how I feel as well. Thank you to everyone who threw their work into the ring. Our judges are in the midst of their deliberations but final results should be posted tomorrow. Exciting stuff! :)

So... ummm... yeah. Jack Katoth... heez jus diz guy, ya know?

Please join us in congratulating the winners of our March Star Trek Fiction Writing Competition! Prizes will be sent out via in-game mail by DoogieGood so watch your inboxes, winners! :)

Taking the first place prize is JBrenden with his entry “Connor.” While the competition was tight, this story’s success in the areas of imagery, character development, and story flow propelled it to the top. Our judges also felt that this story was the most technically well crafted, making excellent use of grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Combine all of that with an emotional one-two punch and you have an amazing story!

Coming in at second place was Propecia, with his entry “Mind Games.” This story rated the highest for originality given its rather odd but successful bend of the Star Trek theme. This entry also rated well in character development and story flow; the ending, especially, created a deep and emotional touchstone.

The third place winner was MarkNine, with his entry “Mysterious Ways.” Revolving around a roleplaying character that has been in development for a number of years, this story rated well in all technical aspects as well as in the originality category.

Once again, congratulations to our winners! Thanks go to all of our competitors and judges for volunteering the time, energy, and enthusiasm necessary to make a contest such as this one successful. :)

Congratulations to JBrendan and MarkNine! Good reads, all around. And thanks for Sturnack and the judges for letting us to play.

Congrats JBrendan and Propecius. :) Both very entertaining stories.

Hey, thanks everyone! I had a lot of fun writing this, in fact it has spurred me on to try my had at a few other literary endeavors (part of the reason I haven't been in-game very much lately... that and I'm waiting for Foundry and new FE's).

I'm glad everyone enjoyed my entry.

Thanks again. :laugh:

Congratulations to all. Please check your ingame mail for you prizes.
