✩ SHONEEN CLUB JUNE CONTESTS ✩
All I Ever Wanted
IT IS TIME FOR THE ANNUAL SHONEENCLUB JUNE CONTESTS! \o/
I know the community has been rather quiet as of late, and we haven't had one of our contests since October, but I still love this place and am excited about what is to come. ♥ There was no way I could let June pass without doing this. I look forward to it now and I hope all of you do as well.
The theme for this year's June contests is --
VACATION!
All of the fiction and fanart submissions should be centered around the concept of vacation, travel, a journey (literally), or some kind of time spent away from the normal day to day activities that Sho and Nino would go through.
For Example: Sho and Nino get time off and decide to go to America together, but somehow they get lost in San Diego.
Or, if you wanted to go AU -- Nino and Sho are traveling salesman together, and things happen over time with all those hotel rooms.
Use your imaginations! I know this community is filled with creative energy and we'll have a great time as usual. :D Find out more about the contest guidelines under the cut!
GUIDELINES (FICTION):
✿ 500 Words Minimum
✿ Rating: Anywhere from PG to NC-17 is acceptable.
✿ Stories can be AU or drama-based this contest :)
✿ MUST FIT THE PROMPT GIVEN ABOVE.
✿ Any genre is acceptable. But please keep in mind stories MUST be centered around Nino and Sho - friendship or romance. If not, you will be disqualified - use your best judgment.

If you worry about interpretation of a prompt, simply comment, PM, or send an email to shoneenclub@gmail.com!
GUIDELINES (FANART):
❀ Tell a "story" through one or more pictures. Meaning - pictures that are simply portraits are not allowed - try and have something extra to offer!
❀ AU and drama-based are okay this contest. :)
❀ Can be sketches, paintings, a comic, manipulations, wallpapers, or a series of AT LEAST FIVE icons - be creative with graphics! Not sure if your fanart counts? PM, or email!
❀ Briefly describe the scene (Example: "Sho and Nino go on a date and this is the moment they kiss!") for mod's use in submission info.

Additional, more specific, and personalized prompts can be given to anyone struggling in either contest. Simply email shoneenclub@gmail.com with a request for help.
