Thread: Poetry Contest?

  1. #1

    Default Poetry Contest?

    Say I wanted to start one, how would I go about it? Who would I contact and could the winner get a Literary Badge?

    Thanks,
    Joker Obama Girl

    Hello Joker Obama Girl . Welcome to the Org. Monk would be the person you would want to ask about that. I doubt he would start such a contest now though, since currently there is a Org Fall Writing Contest going on. If you want to post some of your own poetry for people to read and comment on you can do that in the Mead Hall. I'm not sure if Junior Members can post in the Mead Hall though I'll have to check on that.

    Yes, Junior Members are able to post in the Mead Hall.

    Roses are red, violets are blue, trash is dumped and so are you!

    You can say that to your girl friend when you want to break up. How does that sound? I am seriously just kidding. And by the way welcome to the forums too Joker Obama Girl.

    Hey guys.

    I can see Ichigo has beaten me to the punch, curse classification papers!

    The .Org literary badge is reserved as a reward for official .org writing contests, we recently had a poetry contest in the form of the .Org's Summer 08 Writing contest. Poetry was the challenge and the theme was prosperity. As for another Poetry contest I'm not sure, the last one generated moderate interest but that was perhaps due to the Advertising methods we used.

    If you guys would like a poetry format for the next contest send me a PM entitled "winter contest suggestions." Consequently if you have any other suggestions for it, be theme, word limit, ect, don't hesitant to send those as well.

    Also remember that the Fall Contest still has about a week left!

    Great! I got a good idea for a contest, so I will PM it to you. I do not like rigid rules to be honest :P, which is why I generally do not do contests. I like a lot of slapstick and satire comedy, so that is usually what my writing is. :P
