Ladies and gentlemen, we’d like to offer up the first official contest for and from Tellest.\u00a0 Every month, starting on the 15th, we are going to stage a writing prompt which will run until the 14th of the following month.\u00a0 On the 15th, the Tellest Council will vote on their favorite entry, and the winner will get their choice of kindle ebook from the amazon store (up to $5).\u00a0 It doesn’t even have to be within the Tellest series.\u00a0 The winner will also have their work featured on the Tellest website, and we will potentially expand on whatever you write (or even ask you to do it for us!).\u00a0 The official rules are below, but your goal will be to write about the prompt within the world of Tellest<\/a>\u00a0(click on the link to see a basis for the world, and check out the books of the brand for more information).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For this month, we’d like to lean on the time of year.\u00a0 A lot of fantasy focuses on tragedy and conflict, but we often forget that even in the darkest of times, there can be cause to rejoice.\u00a0 In 1,500 words or less, create a holiday for Tellest from scratch.<\/strong>\u00a0 It can be something that any race would celebrate, and it can be as jovial or as dark as you prefer.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Our submission preference is Google Docs, but we want you to be comfortable.\u00a0 As long as we can read whatever you submit, and it doesn’t cause any unwanted viruses, we’ll accommodate you!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Official Rules<\/strong><\/p>\n
