FFF Writing Competition: Expanding the Universe.
Enjoy writing? Looking for a reason to write again? Whether inspiration has planted a seed in your mind, or maybe you just want to force an idea out, then this writing competition is for you!
Simply write a short piece of fiction (of any length aiming up to approximately 3,500 words, but absolutely no more than 5,000).
You may choose one of the following options for your writing:
1. A short fan fiction set in any established Final Fantasy universe written in the style of any genre (be as creative as you like).
For example you may write in the style of detective fiction, Greek tragedy, a musical, or maybe even in epistolary form.The plot may be a reinterpretation of scenes seen in an FF game, or it could be an additional scene, or even an expansion of a scene referred to but never before seen in detail. The choice is yours!
2. A fictional cross-over. Contestants can write a story set in any Final Fantasy universe but they have to mix it with elements (characters, plot, or concepts, etc) from another fictional universe of their choosing.
Examples might be combining the world of FFXII with A Song of Ice and Fire, FFIX with Dragonball Z, or FFVI with War of the Worlds, or a Final Fantasy universe with mogwai gremlins instead of moogles! Be creative!
We do not expect or desire to receive novels, but a short story or a chapter or extract from a potential lengthier piece of fiction could be received as entries. Feel free to add a preface explaining your concept if you fear that it isn’t immediately recognisable. The preface will not affect the word limit. We shall not want to let obscurity get in the way of creativity.
A member may submit more than one entry if he or she is feeling very creative.
Submit all entries to Dionysos. The deadline for submitting entries will be June 30[SUP]th[/SUP]. A thread will be posted for voting on this day and so it is recommended to submit your entry earlier.
Prize:
1st place - 300 Gil - 5 BWP
2nd place – 100 Gil - 3 BWP
3rd place – 50 Gil - 2 BWP
25 Gil and 1 BWP will be granted to anybody who has entered the competition.
Have fun!
