Greg's Life Writing Contest


Shiny and Sparkling! Gotta find more!
Oh, are you here to marvel at my Gems? There are many kinds and colours, not just in Emera Town, but all over the world. I heard there was this guy on PokéHeroes who's also fascinated with Gems, but we don't really know all that much about him.
Maybe he's told you guys stories we don't know about yet!
I'm sure plenty of you have inspiration just waiting to burst out, so don't keep it bottled up! Take your pen(cils) and keyboards and share all of Greg's stories!

Reward Time
As always with contests, there's something in it for everyone who puts in the effort. If you're one of the winners you will receive a Flute Combo as a prize!

If you join but don't win, you will still receive a consolation prize of 500 Event Points as thanks for joining (:

Requirements
Entry: The subject of the story is Greg, the Gem Collector. There is a tiny bit of lore on the Gem Collector-page, so make sure your story doesn't contradict. Also make sure it's appropriate for all ages. The site rules are still in effect.
Length: You story can be between 400 - 500 words long.
Copyright: The story has to be written entirely by you. You are allowed to draw inspiration from other stories, but you cannot copy-paste any part of them.

How to enter
When you are satisfied with your entry, send it through PM to CatLady. If you post it in the thread, it will be disqualified.

Make sure to put "Writing Entry Submission" as your subject, so it doesn't fall through the cracks when I start collecting them.

Deadline

The deadline is September 27th, 23:59
The winners will be chosen by us, the staff, based on quality.



Please keep SPAM posts out of this thread (:

Most important of all, though, I hope you all HAVE FUN~

@CatLady will the story be accepted if it has some spelling or grammer mistakes?

They will be accepted, yes, but the scores will depend on the other Staff Members, not on me.

Hi, nice to meet you!
Just so you know, I'm about 6 hours behind game time.
I'm aiming for all the plushies so missing ones will be much appreciated. This part is mainly aimed at the plushie exchange contest!
Also, I don't have a battle team so, plz, no battle requests!
I'm aiming for ditto so any normal gem offers or letting me borrow your ditto once I have enough gems would be very appreciated! I'm always buying them!

Accepted? Yes.
Win? No.

You can send in several entries (5 at most), but only one entry will win.

@MimiPallas - We really don't have any more lore ^^'

@spiritwolfy13 - As long as it's within limits, a little longer is fine. A story of 600+ words, for example, won't be accepted (':

Greg seems like the type of person to use (outdated) slang XD
Like "rad" or something. Idk, just sharing that observation here for others to possibly take advantage of in the competition (not joining myself).

Good luck, everyone!
