The Super Sue OC Contest! 6 Entries!A :iconsignaturesenshi: and :iconsenshievolutions: Project
Ever create a Sailor Moon OC and been told, "OMG she's such a Mary Sue!!!" and then had that commenter laugh at you like a crazy person? Well, maybe they didn't laugh at you or your OC, but we have all created our own Mary Sue...
Self-inserts
Super-duper powerful
Sparkle overkill
The perfect personality
Always the most beautiful
Super graceful
Tons of cliche attributes
Those are just a handful of some of the pitfalls many fanartists fall into when creating an OC in their fandom. Even I and Hisa (the founders of the groups sponsoring this contest) have done these things. And some people do them on purpose... Hisa created Epic Sailor Moon to be pretty full of cliche's. Plus she can power up her attacks and fuku at will. If not a Mary Sue, that fancharacter is pretty close! Another creation by Hisa is her self-insert,
Beta-Reader Match-Making: A Fan Fiction ContestMy tenure as Community Volunteer of Fan Fiction ends tomorrow, and I want to go out with a bang. So here's one more competition with prizes so you'll all remember me fondly!
A writer's best friend is another writer. Sometimes you just cannot objectively look over your own work and fix all your mistakes. You need a fresh pair of eyes to help you, and who better than someone else who understands the labors of love you're undertaking? That is where editors come in. But for many people, finding a literary helpmate can be difficult.
What's this about?
This is a two-part contest for writers of fan fiction. Phase One: Write a fan fiction but don't bother to proofread it. Post it in its raw, unedited first draft (just make sure it's still legible--correct your typos, at the very least). Phase Two: We play musical chairs with the stories and assign each of you another entry to edit. Entries will be judged by two categories: Best Diamond in the Rough (premise of the story
4000 POINT GIVEAWAY!!!! CANCELEDSorry all but the ones that were supposed to help sponsor the give away all backed out or wont respond so I have to cancel the giveaway as it will take me forever to reach 10,000 and I am not going to spend 50 bucks just to give it away.. SORRY!!!
Draw My OC with Your OC - Contest OPEN !Draw my OC with your OC!

Mimi (in his giant wolf form)

Mimi (in his cat form)
by *rites-of-passage
:iconrites-of-passage:

Rules:
Fave this contest journal and make a journal about the contest.
Choose one of Mimi's two forms you will draw together with your original character (OC).
You may choose to draw the wolf form OR the cat form.
DO NOT claim Mimi as your own character.
Your character can be anything. Original or fan character. Human or animal. Fantasy creature or original species. Mecha or otherwise.
MIMI MUST BE THE MAIN FOCUS of your work. Your OC should only appear as a supporting cast in the picture.
You can draw as many OCs as you want, but MIMI MUST BE THE MAIN FOCUS of your entry.
Use your imagination. They can be FIGHTING each other. Or they can be FRIENDS. They can be doing anything like eating ice cream, enjoying the rain together or watching a scary movie!

Tolkien - contest #8 - new prizes
-Mr. Bilbo, where are you off to?
-I'm going on an adventure!
The very recent release of The Desolation of Smaug trailer quite inspired this contest's theme. It's just six months to go! Your task in this contest is not simply to draw a character or place from the Middle-earth, that would be just another boring Tolkien competition, wouldn't it?
Fire. Mountain(s). Ruins. Shadow. Flower. Treasure. Couple. Smoke. Lights.
9 words for one quest! Your entry must include at least 3 of these things (and you should mention the ones you've picked in your deviation's description). It must refer to something that actually happened in the Middle-earth or other realms from its dimention described by Tolkien. Entries showing nothing but a character posing like a statue won't be accepted, this is GrimGloomTale, not GrimGloomModel.
Don't be afraid of interpreting them as wild as you can! Smoke, for example, could be Smaug's br
