I am holding a writing contest. You are entering. If you are not, I am forcing you.

Prize is secret for the grand winner. If a lot of people join, i'll tell you how to do that.
Now join.

Unless you want to know what to write.

In which case;

Write about anything. The only requirement is that your story MUST include one thing, a theft of some kind.
Nothing should be 'normal' where it takes place either(ex. putting ice in the fireplace to stay warm).
and there is no when.

That's right.

Write a story without the element of time.

Everything happens when nothing does.

Nothing happens when everything does.

No one ever uses then, when, later, before, yesterday, tomorrow, or any other time words.

The rest is up to you.

I'm giving you 'til April Fool's, so it should be nice and long.

DO NOT post your story here. it might get stolen.

Rmail it, please. I'll read it and send it to the judges with my opinion.

All entries belong to both of us, ok? Good.

Now for what you're graded on.

Spelling(-1% per misspelled word)

Grammar(- 5% per badly structured sentence)

Plot(-30% for an uninteresting one)

Level of interest(-10% per judge who gives it a low)

Following guidelines(-50% if not followed)

Paragraph Length/Length(-1 per paragraph under 7 sentences long, +1 per paragraph over seven sentences long.)

Language(-5 per bad word not im[injection]portant to story.)

Your score starts as 100%, goes down as things like these are found. An overall grade from me will be averaged into that.

Now, Enter or ask to be a judge away!

I be judge? :3
