Since everyone shares it here I'll share it here as well

Very important!
Please read the description or disclaimer first.

Are there additional terms and conditions of the contest, or is what's on this forum thread and the Tapas EULA the entirety of it?

Valbear 2018-03-23 00:43:42 UTC #176

when you're making a post, theres a symbol up on the bar that looks like a chain. You click on that and put the link in it

If you're talking about this, just press enter and make sure it's on a separate line away from the rest of the text.

Oh, thanks! I'll give that a try, though I believe I tried that, too.

lisankumar 2018-03-23 02:07:39 UTC #179

Yes, that's exactly what I was trying to get! Thanks!

I had a quick question before posting my story here. If I change my title and link should I send a new email to the Tapas Staff or should I leave the link the same and just change the title?

Thank you guys! I look forward to writing with you all!

Personally I would hold off on sending them the email if you know you're going to change your title and link after you post the story.

I've been meaning to start up a novel on here, and this camp is totally the way to kick me into starting! I can't wait to start reading all of the submissions. Good luck everyone!

Good luck to all entering. This is my 'hat'. Hope you all enjoy it. It's a fantasy novel about the next generation after all the legends have finished being legendary.

Wishing everyone the best.

Thank you Serena and staff for putting this on.

All these people have been planning for years, and I just came up with this in a week lol. Welp I'm not expecting anything anyways so here goes!

Since everyone else is sharing, I will, too! Haha I just came up with this idea and drew the thumbnail after I saw the contest a few days ago The story is about six college students stumbling through love. One is in love with their childhood friend, another has never before experienced love, and a third has never tried so hard (to name a few characters). I've included a hetero relationship, BL, and GL relationship (wanted to try something new ). The characters will also vary in personalities, so that will be fun to write.

Thanks if you give it a try!

lisankumar 2018-03-23 13:40:49 UTC #187

You're not alone! Though I had a dream that inspired this story, I don't have it plotted at all. Started it a few days ago, lol.

Croik 2018-03-23 14:11:39 UTC #188

Just submitted my entry, KAZUCHIYO. It's a dark romance and fantasy action story about Samurai It's a story I've had brewing for a long time and I'm really glad now to have the chance to get it out there!

@MerryR The only terms and conditions that apply to this contest are those listed at the top of the forum thread, any explanations within this thread, our Terms of Service, and our Content Guidelines.

@eightwrites If you're planning on changing the title and the link, you'll need to send us another email, because we'll have a hard time finding your story if we don't have the right title or link.

Oooh, since a lot of people are sharing their novels here, here is my entry! :o
This is a fictional (loosely) historical fantasy about an amnesiac girl falling into an unfamiliar kingdom and the story follows her attempts to navigate and find her place in the world. After the intro chapters, there'll be a choose-your-own-adventure element/branching narratives (think Cheritz-style otome game x historical Chinese drama lol). If I get far enough, there will be both male and female love interests for the main lead, as well as non-romantic routes ^v^
This is a story I've been planning for a while, potentially for a comic or visual novel in its early stages hence the unconventional branching routes style. Super excited to share it with you all!

SoFt 2018-03-23 19:04:57 UTC #191

I wanted to wait 'til I was 3 episodes deep before sharing mine. I don't think I'll add to the description, as there's plenty in the blurb already. I'll simply spoil that as of today's release, some jerk is gearing up to cleave off the poor girl's arm.

mairadawn 2018-03-23 22:58:45 UTC #192

Hi Serena,
I was thinking of writing a story that would be a part of the Sanctuary's Aggression universe (my other book) but it would be a new, stand-alone book. Would that be accepted?

Just wanted to make sure before I started it.

Thanks!

Ingoshi 2018-03-23 23:34:30 UTC #193

Hi everyone!

If any of you are interested, I have entered my book Socializing to the contest and I am eager to read some of the others! Thankyou in advance if you do read!
