Five00-16 | I see you

Write a 500-word story spread within a day, from the POV of an inanimate object.

The aim of our writing events is to give the writers a chance to explore their writing potential. We also encourage you to be experimental and original.

Five00-16 Event Rules and Guidelines. 

1. Word limit: Minimum 480 and maximum 500 words.
   –>Please note that Endnotes/footnotes in entries will be excluded from Word count only when they stand independent of the story and act as a reference.
   Examples for Endnotes that will NOT be included in word count:
   Glossary, Credits, Reference links.
   Examples for Endnotes that WILL be included in word count:
   Epilogue, Author Notes (If the story depends on it for clarification), PostScript
2. 1 entry per Writer. No previously published writings. 
3. You are expected to post your entries on the ArtoonsInn Writers Room website | writers.artoonsinn.com. Sign up on the website in case you haven’t already, to submit your writing. Ensure you check relevant categories (Genre/Theme) that your story is most relevant to while submitting. However, if you own a website powered by ArtoonsInn, you can share your story on your own website and post the link directly in the Writers Room Facebook group.
4. Upload a non-copyrighted cover picture along with your writing (Refer www.unsplash.com). Make sure to add photographer credits at the bottom of your writing.
5. Share the link to your story, once it is approved on the website, in the ArtoonsInn Writers Room Facebook group with your post description and hashtags #ArtoonsInnWritersRoom #Iseeyou #Five0016.
6. The last date to post your submission in the Writers Room Facebook group is 23rd March at 11.59 PM IST. Entries submitted after the deadline will be considered as Guest entries. Winner/s will be announced on Recognition day i.e. 31st March 2023.
