User blog:Yoponot/Summer Fanon Con 2016 - Creative Writing Results

Hey guys and welcome to the results for the 2016 Summer Fanon Con, Creative Writing Contest!

The theme this time was you had to make a short story in 100 words (not counting title).

Who came out on top? What stories where the best to read? Well let's get RIGHHHHT INTO THE RESULTSSSSSSSSS.

Sixth Place
In sixth place we have Primal's entry. The reason I place it so low is for two reasons.


 * 1) The dialogue is cheesy and a big turn off.

So sorry Primal, better luck in the Fall!
 * 1) It's not anything original compared to other entries, it's pretty much just a description of a scene from Omniverse.

Fifth Place
Coming in Number 5 is Dioga's entry. I enjoyed the fact that this was split up between diary entries from two different people, however I felt like this didn't really tell a story. At least with Primal's you have the context from Omniverse but here it just feels like your dropped into some situation and reading as a semi-generic Alien Force fight scene happens.

Fourth Place
In fourth we have Brandon's entry. It has a lot of atmosphere and allows you to feel like you are really in this setting. However it feels like it's restrained by the 100 word count, I feel like something else less descriptive would have worked better.

Third Place
Coming in third is Reo's. It's short, simple, and sweet with a nice description of this Grim Reaper. However that also leads to it's biggest problem, it's kind of generic, it doesn't try to wow you. It feels like this could have been something great but in the end it's just good, not great. Not a bad thing but in terms of this list, that's why it falls so low.

Second Place
In second we have CaT's! This story is cool because it's written almost like a poem, that's unique to this contest. You don't know if the monster is real or if it is some deeper representation of the MC's fears. It was hard to decide what one deserved first place but in the end it just came down to the fact that I liked what first place did more with it's story. Not to say anything is bad with CaT's, it's just first place does one thing well that I think puts it over CaT's.

First Place
and in first we have Aaron's! Why did Aaron's win first? Well it allows us to see Azmuth's point of view, something very unique. It's well written and provides a bit of twist ending, with it not being the Omnitrix that he's the most proud of. I can't really say anything wrong about this, it works well with the 100 word format and that's why it's our winner. Well that's it guys for this years Creative Writing contest! Tomorrow Mig comes in with the main blog! See ya!
