To enter each monthly contest, please enter the URL of your newly published short story in the appropriate thread that will be created just prior to the beginning of the contest. Contest submission periods will be defined in each new thread, where the theme of each new contest will be announced. If possible, new titles will be created that pertain to the current contest and writers are encouraged to write to one of these titles.

 

Only one entry is allowed per writer per contest. No previously published stories will be accepted, only those that are newly written and published on Helium, then immediately linked in the appropriate thread in this group. Voting will be allowed for participants only, and will immediately follow the end of the submission period. Voting will continue for approximately one week.

 

Winners will be announced after the end of the voting period. 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners will be linked on the Tantalizing Tales zone, with 1st place getting the coveted featured story spot. Each participant gets two votes, and may not vote for their own story. 1st place is 5 points, and 2nd place is 3 points. In the case of a tie, both entries will receive equal exposure on the Tantalizing Tales zone. No critiquing is allowed in the contest threads, but comments of a non-critical nature are welcome.
