I'm glad, ^^ look above about the sign up thing. It ends Christmas day, but if there is a need of more time I will gladly give it.
Awesome!
How many words/ chapters. I might not be able to finish if its requires a full length book.
I'm in, but I can't promise I'll finish.

You can make it as long as you want, but it would be good, if it is over 2 chapters. I am glad you joined.
So do we have a deadline?

Your welcome, thats fine it gives them more time to write more as well.
I might have needed that, too! ;D
P.S. 300 post!!!!!
Well glad it worked out for every one. ;)
Well I won't be able to finish mine in time. I have the whole entire plot in my head, but I don't have the time to write it right now. Our debate club is holding a tournament this week. So Good luck everyone with the contest!!!!!!!!!!!!
When and if I finish my story I'll send it in just for fun, b/c the whole thing will be about Leatho anyways. ;) Hope you win!

Your fine, what you have right now is enough to judge. So you will at least get two characters from your fanfic drawn.
Little reminder, it ends on the 15th of March.
I'm working on my third and final chapter, which will be longer than the first two.
Quote from: PluggFiretail on March 12, 2013, 04:46:29 PM

Sounds good.
Mine might be finished kinda late Friday night.
Ok, awesome! Just to let you all know, you can finish your stories after the Contest ends, only I will say who the winners are on the 15 and/or 16. With the Best Fanfiction 1 Prise: I will continue to illustrate your whole fanfic if you write more later on. With the Second Best Fanfiction 2 Prise: I will illustrate half of your fanfic you have now written and if you write more after the said date above I will continue to illustrate every other chapter, Ex. lets say you write two more chapters, well I will only illustrate on of the two so that it will stay that only half is illustrated. I hope that makes sense. :) Good luck to you all! You all should be very proud of your selves on your great work. It has been a lot of fun reading your works.
