Hello friends!
Some of you might have enjoyed my series of the adventures of poor Jo!
If you haven't:
Read about Jo and her friends here!

Done? OK! Now I hope that you might want to contribute! So I'm holding a story contest!
The reason it's a story contest is because the prizes will be art made by me! And I hope I might turn some of your ideas for Jo into comics or pictures in the end, too! I suppose if you want to do an illustrated story/comic that's fine too, but it's not a contest for single pictures!

Rules and guidelines

1: Try not to get TOO harsh or sexual!
Jo regularly faces these sort of predicaments, sure, but I still aspire for the adventures of Jo to feel fun and kinda lighthearted even if Jo is utterly miserable throughout! (Dont take this as a "go easy on her" in any way!!)

2: Don't feel restricted to use only my characters or locations! Jo gets into misadventures pretty much wherever she goes, at the hands of most people she meets.

3: Remember it's the story of Jo. A story about one of Amy's solo adventures would be interesting, but work Jo in there somehow! Even if she's just getting dragged along on a leash or something.

4: Be creative! Have fun!

5: (Forgot one!) Jo has to get tied up at some point in the story!  At least if you want to have a chance at winning! :P

Prizes:

1st Prize :
1 - 2 page comic! Inked and colored. Like this, or this.
It will of course be based on whatever you - the winner wants!*
You'll also get the rough sketch, and there might be quick character studies as well. Something like this.

2nd Prize :
Single picture, based on whatever you want!* Inked and colored. Like this, or this. Maybe even a mini comic like this.
You will also get the rough sketch!

3rd Prize:
A colored sketch based on whatever you want!*
It will be in a looser style like this.

Additional "Prize":
I might also turn your story of Jo into a picture or a comic! (If I do I might take some liberties with the material, but I hope we can collaborate!)

* See the things in my gallery for what I am comfortable drawing. I reserve the rights to turn down an idea, but I'm generally quite open and willing to please, so if I'm not comfortable with drawing your first idea, we'll talk it over and come up with something!


Deadline

The deadline is January 31st! Lots of time! Mostly because I'm quite busy myself!

Ok guys! I'm super excited!
Post the stories on your own DA pages, or in Note form to me, or mail them to me at elijahpink@mail.com. Either way is good!

ENTRIES!

Interesting challenge... is prose an acceptable medium? I ask because much though I admire works of visual art, I cannot create them for toffee. ;)
Now, prose, on the other claw, THAT I can get creative with... :)
