Doing advanced rules to the (fictional) glass bead game!
You know that studded leather armour in films? Nobody wore that. I mean, how would metal studs improve leather armour?

In the directions you said that entries can be between 350 and 2000 words. Does this mean the minimum word count is 350?
Please take care to use good grammar when making a post!

Can we take a scene from a well-known book/movie, etc, and turn it into a news report?

@ongoeslife

That sounds like it would be more fanfic-ish. You could base it in the same universe or even the same plot-line as the book, but to use that scene you'd have to make sure the focus of it is something completely made up.

Can you submit more than one thing?

@AEChronicle

You can only submit one entry (just to keep it fair) but you can edit or change that entry whenever you like.

I really like this event, even though it is one of the hardest things I've ever done (as far as writing goes).

Don't say you don't have enough time. You have exactly the same number of hours per day that were given to Helen Keller, Pasteur, Michaelangelo, Mother Teresa, Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Jefferson, and Albert Einstein.
