This thread is for general discussion about the writing contest.
There will be a contest every two weeks, with the due date Monday at noon UTC. Extensions can be offered in exceptional circumstances. Voting will begin when the contest closes, and will be open for three full days. Once the poll closes, the winner is free to choose a topic for the next week and start a new entries thread. If the winner does not create an entries thread within the next day, or decides not to create a thread, then someone else may create one. In any case, whoever chooses the topic may not participate in that contest. Entries can be in any language. Entries must be written from the perspective of someone in an alternate world, a future world, or a fantasy world.
Feel free to suggest potential topics for future contests.
Here are some ideas I had:
Treaty
Anthem
Excerpt from holy text
Inaugural address or coronation speech
Travel brochure
Restaurant menu
Newspaper or website from a democratic state
Newspaper or website from an authoritarian state
Review of a book, movie, show, or play
Top secret file from a top secret organization
