A "Game of Thrones"   by Gaby ~ Way behind! Review


Description: As the contest title informs you, you are not allowed to use dialog, which includes inner dialog as well. This sounds like a great challenge for short story writers who tend to use dialog to move the story forward. Another challenge of this contest is to get the story written in seven hundred words or less. It must be newly written for that month's contest and do not forget the word count! This is so necessary and a lot of writers forget to do that, which results in disqualification, sadly.

Overall Impression: The page layout if fun and colorful. The rules are clearly stated and easy to follow. Good prizes away the winner of this contest, from the exclusive contest ribbon for first place, to their exclusive merit badge and gift points for second or third. This contest has been around for almost as decade and has even won some Quill awards. Congratulations. There are a lot of writing acitivites and contests on the site, but this one stands out because it is different from other contests. Being a bit more restrictive makes the writer take their time, polish up their skills and get to work at crafting a great story. It's too bad this contest is on hiatus. It looks like a lot of fun!
