VII. BookRix Battle of Words





Dear Members!



The Battle of Words (BoW) goes into a next round...

The Academy Awards are on March 7, but you can get ready for the awards by joining our latest Battle of Words competition.

And the topic is... *opening of envelope*...: "Hollywood!"



This can mean the best or the worst of Hollywood... and everything in between!

If you would like to participate, please post a comment in this thread that you are in for the contest. Then, start your writing so you can put your work up when the BoW VII Story thread is up on March 3.

BookRix puts out another ca$h prize money for the Battle of Words winner, $100.

The battle will start on Thursday, February 25, 2010 - rules & instructions can then be read below.


Best of luck to all participants!


Thanks,
The BookRix Team

Rules & Instructions


Welcome to the BoW VII!

Here are the rules and instructions for this Battle of Words:

- If you want to take part in the competition, write a comment below that you join the BookRix Battle of Words.

- After seven days (March 4, 2010), the battle starts and every contestant writes at least one story with the maximum length of 28 BookRix pages.

- Every participant can submit as many stories as s/he wants to. However, each story must be a complete story and not part of a series of stories. Poetry work is not eligible for this contest; only short stories.

- Stories that have won prizes in any previous BookRix contest cannot be entered.

- All opponents have seven days (until March 11, 2010) to write stories, upload them as BookRix books and link their works in the then-opened "BoW Story Thread."

- Afterward, everyone can read the stories and vote for them by writing a comment with the name of their favorites in the "BoW Voting Thread." The voting will be open until March 18, 2010.

- The votes then are counted up. The three best-rated books - determined by the amount of votes cast per book - will be given to an independent jury.

- The winner will win $100 cash prize money, an additional surprise and be featured the next week on the BookRix homepage.


We hope to have a fair and interesting competition, and that you enjoy the experience.

Please let us know if you have any questions.


Thanks,
The BookRix Team

have a series question


When I write the Dog Stories, it is part of my series; but each story stands alone. Permissible?

Stand alone story as part of a series


Hi Paulashene,

As long as the story can stand by itself with a definite ending, then it is eligible for the BoW.

Good luck to all!
