RPGC #30 – Celestial Lights


Celestial:
1. Of or relating to the sky or physical universe as understood in astronomy
2. Of or relating to heaven; divine

With Celestial having both an astrological and spiritual meaning, you may choose in what way celestial will be the theme of your story. If you don’t know what to choose there is always the option to combine both definitions in your story.

May the Celestial Lights guide you as you write this story.

There is also an art contest with the same theme and if you decide to make cover art for your story, you have a shot at winning both contest. But if you only win one both entries will still be displayed (so either your story will be added in a hidebox in the Museum of TDAC winners, or your cover will be added in a hidebox in the RPGC Trophy case)




Core rules:
  • At all times follow the Fundamental Rules of the Guild and the Moderation Policy for Forum Contests.

Ooooh! Calle I love this theme!

I’m hoping that I can enter this one, just commit to it and get it done. I could certainly enter the art contest.

Thanks again for running this.

We literally do not deserve you <3

10 days before the deadline. And that is not too late to start, it's perfectly possible to write a short story within a few days.

@Kalleth unfortunately my master thesis has kept me quite occupied for the last few days and I was intending to use this time to write for the contest. Turns out reading academic articles in the number I'm trying to takes much more time and energy than I had anticipated (and while this is a rookie mistake, I've been around the block, so I should've known better). Apologies to Calle for promising my entry and having to renege on that. :-(

Don't worry about it Odin, your thesis is more important. I remember how it was when I had to write mine.
If you had an idea based on this prompt you can always write it another time.




The last 24 hours before the deadline have begun and we have 3 entries now. If anyone is still working on something, now is the time for the final proofreading and editing round.
