Atercia

This competition will take place and a winner will be announced every two months. Because of the small number of users this will give people plenty of time to get entries in and take part in the competition.

The Competition:

Read the following paragraphs then continue the story. The paragraph can be used at any point of the story.
'He' is used, but the gender may be changed.

Life was strange, it was something that he held as belief for many years now. You could look for something for years and then when you stop looking there it is. Stood right in front of you, probably had been for most of the time you had spent looking.

That's what he had learnt in life. Stop looking, and you begin to find everything you ever want.

The one thing he hadn't expected to ever find was love. And that story begins with a bagel...

To enter:

After you finish your story all entries must be PMed to me. Each person may only submit one story.

Closing date for story will be 15th November 2009.

I will then post all stories on the forums anonymously and there will be two weeks to vote for your favourite story.

The Prize:

You will get a custom title which you can choose for the next two months to show off your awesomeness.

Any questions/comments, feel free to post below. Thank you.

Uh, missed this one too , but THE NEXT ONE AND I'M SO ON IT! Seriously. I only participated in one, but it is one of the favorite peices I have ever written, seriously. I need to start up on that again. Short story writing...PLUS I'm in the Hall of Fame. I feel a loyal obligation. So yeah, I'll be checking every week for the next one.

...I have half the story written I swear. Damn, I never seem to be that good with these due dates.

I seem to be getting worse at remembering these due dates. I'd make a lousy teacher...

I'm planning on being a teacher, and I'll be bad at it too. I'll be the one whose all, "That's due on Monday!" and then Monday comes and I'll be all confused. "What? It's Monday all ready? I suppose we can wait a few more days..."

AND I'M TOTALLY GOING TO DO THIS ONE, NO FREAKING JOKE, NOT A LIE!
