Can't wait to give this a try. Already have an idea forming. Emmie or The Muse ( ) you may want to put the final submission date in the thread title so people can see it easily.

"Free poetry", no rules poetry (not sure what you guys call it) is it alowed?
Because I can't even rhyme.
And I don't have to use my favorite character, do I? Just from my top 2?

Sky, if the character or relationship is one of your favorites, that's totally fine to use. Wyndam, I have no idea what you're talking about but I'll be sure to pass the message along to The Muse to have the thread title edited.

I've decided to write a fanfic instead of a poem. Which is bad since I've never really completed a poem that's longer than 500 words(which is the minimum).
It's not that I can't write, I just can't edit. Which some would say is a big part of writing... hehe

Sky, the word minimum is only for prose. Poetry doesn't have a minimum word count.

Sky, the word minimum is only for prose. Poetry doesn't have a minimum word count. Oh, I know that. I meant that it was the minimum for the fanfics and that I'm bad at completing 500+ fanfics. I hope we'll have a drabble contest next time. Then to compensate on the shortness we could have less time to write. -EDIT We can't use "bad" words, can we? Since they'll be **** on the board?

Yeah, try to keep it close to PG-13, okay?
And I'm sure we'll be doing a drabble challenge in the future.
