Yeah, memory comes back and there indeed was a tag for ever competition, but no banner.

Yup. I think the closest to any banner would be like the contests BL Palace holds creates.

But those are usually only embedded into forum posts and our google forms.

That aside, I don’t want to damp anyone’s enthusiasm, but has anyone ever held a competition or knows how it works?

Depending on the criteria to win, it can be lots of work or getting lots of bitching and cheating.

I kinda looked at the posts by Staff members
Zinless seems to be reacting on the posts that have been sent on his profile
If we post about this on his profile he might be able to get it through to other staff members

Erm, except for @Enkiari or @Zinless all other staff members are ghost members.

That might be totally handled by the staff or totally by our sponsors or totally by the community
Depending on the terms that sponsor would make

Honestly... fiction writing competitions are a great way to boost your work's popularity and build brand awareness as an author. However, I'm not interested. Why?

It's too complicated. Competition rules often force you to write stories outside your artistic vision. Writing fiction is also a matter of taste—I find it hard to write outside my style narrative. I don't want to write about a pathetic young man who gets hit by a truck just to start another fantasy story. I prefer to write fiction based on my artistic vision.

In short... you can start a fiction writing competition, but I'll just watch, eat popcorn, and drink soda while I continue writing my fiction. Good luck!

But that's exactly why I enjoy them; it's a challenge against creativity to go outside the comfort zone. :blob_aww:

I think competitions are about genres
They are of various types it maybe the best Isekai or the best in general
No one really forces you to write for competition...It is just there...I fyou want you can submit you work for competition or wait till a competition comes which is suitable for you work
