*NoteB*   Welcome to the World Weaver’s Championship!   *NoteB*

Quill Nominee Signature 2022
For Honorable MentionsA signature for Quills finalists to use

There are many contests on W.com which look at genre stories or answers to a given prompt.

The World Weavers’ Championship is my effort to expand on where the other WDC contests leave off. Here we’ll tackle the set, the cultures and politics and the part your world plays in your story. That’s not to say that this is a strictly fantasy or sci-fi contest! This applies just as much to the fictional representations of contemporary or historical settings.
