1. In a Static or Book entry item, write something about a given prompt for the current round. The prompt is usually the form of poetry to be used.

2. Create/invent your own word. Word can be either a noun, verb, adjective, adverb, or an interjection. The word you created must have the (a) part of speech, (b) type and origin/etymology, (c) definition, and (d) sentence usage. See sample below:

3. You may create a minimum of one (1) and maximum of three (3) words per round. All words submitted must be used/presented in your submitted poetry. Only one (1) poetry per member per round. Word creation will be judged separately from your composition, thus, submitting three words means a higher chance of winning the Word Creation Rewards. If you plan to submit your poem in your future publication, might as well prepare a real word alternative for the ones you invented. Real words means those words that exist in an English dictionary.

4. The words you created must be displayed at the bottom of your item (this is a must). Highlight/bold/italicize the word(s) within your composition.

5. Properly rate your content base on Writing.com's "Content Rating System (CRS)" . Entries with 18+ ratings are accepted provided that it doesn't show hints of foul words, cursing, sex and affection with the inanimate object. Keep forum post clean for everyone.
