A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words Contest # 1

A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words

We all have heard this saying and we all have come across pictures that evoked all kinds of reactions in us.

In this contest, we are presenting a photo or picture to you and are asking you to write about it.

Here is what is acceptable for the purpose of this contest.

• Describe what you see
• Describe what you feel
• Write a story or poem about what you think is going

Of course, we expect original work.

If the story that pours out of you after seeing the visual prompt is not obviously connected to the photo, please include a short paragraph how the prompt led you to the story.

Length

Write as much or as little to say what you want to say. You are invited to craft a longer story but we don't want to ask for a certain wordcount.

Prizes

For now, this is going to be a reward for participation contest.

Each participant will receive two HBI unit - hopefully more later if our earnings go up.

Looking for volunteer judges.
