Most entries are going to be E rated but some may go beyond that. |
You just want to read? These entries will be freshly written for a contest. Since I plan on joining many then I'm putting them all in a book. Sit back and enjoy it. I'll try to do a (poem) line count, (story) word count, prompt, and which contest I entered in. Though I won't be mentioning it in the piece, but "The Contest Challenge"  will be a part of a contest I enter since it's about entering into a contest following its rules. Wish me luck!

| Oso and Ixia went shopping with a load of diamonds with them. They wanted to give Arcobia a special gift for the New Year 5000 before the wet season began. They had to be swift because they also wanted to put anti-theft protection on it. This wasn’t going to be an ordinary gift they saved up for. It held the power to change everything. Arcobia could wish whatever wish she would like to and it would come true. Once in every ten years it could happen. Not just anytime. And this magical gem was going to be in the auction today. They knew about it. They didn’t know if anyone else knows about it. It came in Oso’s dream. He knew exactly what to watch for too. It was going to be labelled as an ordinary gem. The gem wasn’t expected to go for so much. He hoped so. It would be a bargain. They were excited over this dream to come true. This was the place. It matched in the dream. They went in. First up was what looked like a magical gem but got labelled an ordinary gem. They were certain this gem had to be the one. They did the minimum bid on it and then a bandit stood up and bid higher. A few more bids as well before they bid again. The bandit chickened out right away but two others kept in. They bid once again. The two others dropped out and they got it, saving themselves a lot of diamonds. They went up, made their payment, and got the magical gem. Together they made a wish for the gem value to go unnoticed by the others. Then the next gem came and it was just an ordinary gem. They had to wait to the last five gems to gain more magical gems. Their value was greater and their diamonds went down a bit. Still, they had full of diamonds by the time the auction was done. Their prize well spent. Most importantly they held the Wishing Magical Gem which worked in having its value go unnoticed. Even when they brought it up it was dismissed. That’s how they could tell their wish worked. They went home and wrapped it up neatly after putting the gem into a box. Now Arcobia could enjoy having wishes come true. Once every ten years. Of course they used it themselves. The year 5000 waited. They couldn’t wait for the dry season to end. Prompt: Plot Background Word Count: 415 Contest: "October Novel Prep Challenge" |
