[edit] Fan Fiction Competition — April 3rd, 2008

Another Elder Scrolls Fansite, Chorrol.com, is holding a Fan Fiction Competition from today until the end of the month. Anyone can enter, and the prizes are actually quite good (Two Copies of Oblivion signed by Todd Howard, and a map of Shivering Isles signed by the developers). So for anyone interested in writing fan fiction, they should definitely look into this. More information about the competition can be found here. There will be three categories for entries: short (less than 2500 words), medium (2500 to 20000), and long (20000+). Ratwar, an administrator here on the UESP, will be helping to judge some of the entries. Good luck to anyone hoping to enter!
