Contest Announcements

Welcome to a semi-new feature at the Perv Pack's Smut Shack – contest announcements. If you have a contest you'd like us to announce, please send it to me at contests@pervpackssmutshack.com

I will be posting the first and third Saturday of each month with expanded contest information, and updating the sidebar off to your right (---> over there), as well as Twitter when I hear of contests. Please note that these blog body posts are simply a copy/paste (with some minor HTML tweaks) of the contest information from the hostess(es), so any spelling or gramatical errors are all their own.

Since this is the first post, this will be a comprehensive list of all current/ongoing contests I have been made aware of, sorted by the end-date, from the soonest ending to the farthest away:

The Sparkle and Snark-Full Twilight Humor Contest - submission deadline July 19, 2009

“So, a Vampire, a Werewolf, and a Human Walk into a Bar…”
Rules and Regulations:

1. Um… it should attempt to be funny. HUMOR. Like if it’s all drama and then someone laughs inexplicably... No. And it needs to be about Twilight. Canon, AU, All-human are all fine. This isn't a lemon contest, but lemons are just fine.

2. Length is limited to 7k. This does not include title, any end notes, etc.

3. This contest is ANONYMOUS. If you violate this to pimp your own entry on your thread, profile, or whatever, I will DELETE you. That being said, pimping the contest is totally cool. Just don’t tell folks what you wrote.

4. The story must be original for this contest—no continuations or outtakes from other stories … otherwise it’s not really anonymous, is it?

5. Stories need to be emailed to PastichePen@TLYDF.com.

6. Contest opens June 7. Entries will be accepted until July 19 11:59 PM EST.

7. Voting via poll will begin July 22 and will close July 23 11:59 PM EST.

8. There will be special awards, too:

The Snarky Jake Award. Jake has a lot to be pissed off about. He was also one of the few characters in the series that was actually funny. Let it rip, ladies.

The Angry Jane Award. Jane Volturi decides that she wants to seduce one of the Cullens. Take this as you will. There are so many scenarios playing out in my head…

Funny Vampire Award. Just so you all won’t just write AH.

Other random awards may be assigned depending on the number of contest entries and the judges’ penchant for insanity. Who are the judges? The Ficster ladies plus yours truly.

9. Authors names and their associated stories will be announced immediately after polls close and before winners are posted.

10. Winners will receive an ego boost, adoration, and something random. Probably a banner.

11. It's LJ, so all bold and italics and underline and strikethrough must be formatted, e.g. bold and italics. Also, submit with the following headers:

Title:
Author: (either LJ, Fan Fiction, or Twilighted or all of the above)
Rating:
Warning:
Summary:

12. If you want submit any funny art, that’s cool, too. We’d love to post it.
If you have questions, ask me. Either email me a the address above or send me a message via my LJ or FF account.
