TiBB's Writing Annual Talent Competition Hello and welcome to the first ever TWAT competition! This contest has arrived to give those who enjoy creative writing a chance to compete with others, or for people completely new to have a go and try writing something for themselves (this sub-forum also needs a bit of traffic so I had to have an attention-seeking title ). I'd like to say thanks to Andy BigBro for inspiring me to create this contest due to his excellent Avatar Competition. How does it work? - There will be three catagories that you can submit your piece of writing to: Short Story, Poems and Songs. - After the deadline passes, there will be three heats of the competition where the public will vote for a winner out of each category. - Once there is a winner from each category there will be a winner decided by the public and the author will be crowned TWAT 2017 winner! (There will also be an award for the winner which will be revealed shortly). Rules 1. Each member can only submit one entry into each category (so three in total). 2. Each entry must be headed with which category you are submitting it under. 3. Creativity is open to interpretation but obviously a song has to have verses and a chorus, a poem can be any type of poem as long as it has a poem structure, and a short story can be anything from a narrative piece to a script for a new TV Show! 4. Each entry you submit must be your own work. No plagiarism! 5. There is no minimum word count for each entry, but obviously submitting something with three words in it isn't going to wow the public. The maximum word count is 2,000 words. 6. The deadline for submitting entries is Sunday December 31st 2017. This gives you just over two months to submit, so no entries will be accepted after this date. There is no theme for the first competition so just let those creative juices flow and see what you can come up with! Feel free to submit as many entries as you like down below as long as you make clear what your final submissions for each category will be before the deadline. Have fun and if you have any questions just ask away! |

*Just to make it clear, say if you're writing a script for a TV show it can be for an existing TV show say Eastenders, as long as it is a totally new concept and never been done before.

Category - Song
Hell Here There’s an epidemic sweeping through our nation I didn’t know before cause I was stuck in my own station But then I Went to a party and as I walked through the back roads I Saw everyone dancing and laughing in the white snow I said, you need to stop I said you all need to stop, I don’t know what’s going on but you all need to stop Cause this can’t carry on You’ll be doing it on your own In your bedroom with the lights off when the party’s all gone Neon signs, Cocaine lines, Hello there, it’s hell here Hello there, it’s hell here Rosé wine, Your light shines But it’s hell here, Take me home cause it’s hell here Oh it’s hell here I dread going to class and as I walk there, I feel all eyes are on me as they stop talking and just stare, I know they think of last night and I know they think I’m crazy , But I’m the only one who doesn’t feel the need to get hazy They need to stop, They all need to stop, I know that they’re addicted but they all need to stop, Cause this can’t carry on They’ll be doing it on their own In their bedrooms with the lights off when the party’s all gone Neon signs, Cocaine lines, Hello there, it’s hell here Hello there, it’s hell here, Rose wine, Think they’re fine, But it’s hell here, Take me home cause it’s hell here Oh it’s hell here, Oh it’s hell here, Stand back, stand back I know that you think you’re alright, jack But this will not end well for you You don’t need to be a psychic to tell you that It’s hell here, Oh it’s hell here, You think you’re in heaven It’s the fear, You think you’re good so take it to the next gear Hello there, it’s hell here Hello there it’s hell here Oh it’s hell here Oh it’s hell here Oh it's hell here Oh oh oh it's hell here..
