Hello ATS writers!
I've taken a little bit of hiatus from the writing forums and luckily BFFT took over and did a stellar job. That being said, I've decided to run a
May contest.
The theme?
Superheroes.
Yeah I know. It's mostly because I'm so excited about the Avengers opening this weekend and I really want to read some stories about heroes.
But that would be too boring right? So here's a twist. You can choose to do classical hero, or an Anti-Hero.
In the same breath as
The Punisher or
Deadpool I
wanna read about an unlikely hero.
A man or a woman or an alien or whatever you'd like, who just doesn't have a choice to save the girl or the world. He doesn't want to, but the
circumstances lead him to the glory of becoming a known hero.
Original characters are a requirement.
Rules Of Entry
The contest will run from Tuesday 4/28/15 to Sunday 5/31/15 at Midnight. Any submissions after that date will be disqualified. A period of voting
after the closing of the contest will also be provided.
6 days of voting.
All T&C's Apply
All entries MUST include [MAY2015] in the title.
All entries must be linked in this thread. You must include [writer] [non-writer] in your submission post within this thread.

There will also be 3 winners from the non-writer category who will receive the following:

Scoring
Flags will be worth 2 points each.
