Christmas Holidays
Contest

2 days left to submit your entries!!!
Submission Deadline extended 2 days!

Entry Submission Dates are from December 1, 2009 until December 26, 2009.
Voting Dates are from Friday December 27, 2009 - Jan 1, 2010.
The Big Holiday Revelation Night to find the winning entries, is on Jan 2, 2010!
 
The Holidays are here and now is the time to bring the spirit of Christmas and New Year's Eve into writing! Come up with a story, that deals with a character that is TG or became TG during the story and fill it with the meaning and Spirit of Christmas & Good Will! That simple! Any genre, any plot device.

The story entry can be a chapter of an ongoing serial, a short story, a poem, a novel, a piece of any length. The only restriction is that this work be NEW writing and not already posted prior to the starting date of this contest. This is for new works only, and as such please do not use anything recycled from other sites. Entries may be multipart (especially because of that submission length bug in Drupal!).

The Contest will last a total of 3 weeks for submissions (December 1, 2009 - December 24, 2009).

The voting will occur over a 1 week period by registered site users only and only 1 vote per person using only 1 of their registered site accounts. Multiple attempts to vote using additional accounts owned or created by that person will nullify their vote and have us pull out the paddle!

The voting will be blind ballot of course and the results kept hidden.

The TOP 4 stories will be awarded a prize designated as follows: 1st place - $90, 2nd place - $70, 3rd place - $50, 4th place - Copy of Jenny Walker's No Half Measures Volume 2.

The winners will need to pm Sephrena with their mailing address to mail the winners their money. All prizes will be mailed the day after the winners announcement.

First Place was precisely tied by 2 very talented authors. Since this was the case, I combined both 1st place and 2nd places prizes together and divided them by 2. Hence, both authors shall receive equal first prize amounts.

Kris has been struggling with gender confusion. On Christmas Eve, in the midst of a party full of girls in holiday finery, his sister offers to dress him up to see if it will help him to understand things better.

Will he get one?

I would like to thank everyone who took the time to enter for participating. In every sense of the word, all of you who entered the contest are winners!!! I wish I had the funding to pay everyone who took the time and entered, but... I simply don't have those kind of resources. I would also like to thank the people who took the time to vote and who read the stories. That is what BigCloset TopShelf is all about! Writing, Reading, Commenting, and Participating.

I will return with presenting the Summer Romance 2010 Contest!

Merry Christmas to All and a Happy New Year!
