The first of the new writing competition series begins. 
For those of us new to the RPG writing competitions and have no idea what they are, take a peek at [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/79563-the-twelve-labours-an-introduction/ooc] an Introduction [/url].

For those of you who participated in the Twelve Labours before or RPGC, you may be interested to know that this series will have a distinctively different thematic orientation. There are seven in total, and each one will hopefully amuse both reader and writer, inviting each to contemplate on each dreadful Sin.

Let the Second Sin Begin. [u][b] Submission ends at 11:06 AM GMT, Monday July 17th 2017. [/b][/u]
