A few alterations I'm making for the 'contests'

So, first off, they're no longer going to be called "Contests." They are 'creative writing assignments' ( not real assignments, as in something you need to do, just something to go with the whole "Anko's Classroom" theme XD).

And rather than giving out a prize to a winner, I'll give out prizes to creative writings that I'm particularly impressed with; on top of offering a free fanfic commission, I'll also showcase the writing in an upcoming entry.

Additionally, while you're free to post your 'assignment' on DA, or FF, or Tumblr, or whatever, all writings are to be submitted to my new E-mail: Ankosclassroom@yahoo.com

Lastly, while I may occasionally post future 'creative writing assignments' with only single images displayed, I will be including from 3 to 5 images, all with a similar theme so that you're never without something to work with, assuming you know the series and/or characters well enough.

I won't be posting a new assignment just yet; for now, the current image will be accompanied by two more I've scrounged up (And again, all images belong to their respectful artists, not me!)

The current writing assignment choices are as follows:












Now, the only limit is your own imagination!

You're free to choose from any of the 5 images shown, and write a oneshot fic based around it (Hell, you're free to work with several, or even all of them, if you're really feeling creative enough!). As long as you don't divert too much from the theme the image(s) provided focus on, and write at least 3000 words, and use proper grammar, spelling, and punctuation, you're free to write whatever you please!

Also, check the previous post for an important call to arms of all OCs willing to participate in the SEquel! You won't want to miss it ^^ Have fun!

Just a general update, as well as a few questions from my readers

So to start off... I'm actually fairly pleased with how the reception of Kushina's Wife Test has turned around so far :) Anyone who's stuck around has started to understand what I'm aiming for, and I'm starting to be more willing to work on it now. As a matter of fact (Among some other works of mine), I'm even knee-deep in the third chapter right now!

However, there is a certain FF user by the name of God-ShadowEx100 who made me sick with his evaluation of my work. And I quote:

"This garbage has been reported for adult content and the fact hinata is a useless whore. This story will be reported until your bitch ass is banned and your story removed from this site."
-God-ShadowEx100's review of KWT ch1

What a dick -___- However, I would advise against anyone who might be reading this from spamming or attacking him for such behavior. As much as I can admit that he would deserve such hatred for attacking not just me, but also many, many other works, it's pathetic to attack someone for such actions, as you're just doing exactly what he's been doing, and that's incredibly pathetic and foolish. 

And I'm not telling you about this guy so that you can attack him; I'm telling you because he's flatout stated that he seeks to have my story taken down, and if it is, it's probably because of this dude. Will I get banned like he wants? Doubtful, and straight-up improbable, but I have seen FF take down some works simply because they were reported by petty assholes like this one, so I just want you all to be aware of what may or may not happen.

Again, do NOT spam him, or even show him any regard. He's just a pathetic hater who seems to put pathetic amounts of time into trying to take down works of fanfiction. As much of a dick as he may be, he is NOT worth the time or effort, and you're only giving him attention he doesn't deserve by bearing your fangs at him.

But hey! Responding to one hater is hardly the reason that I'm posting this update! So let's get into that, shall we? But first, here's a random sexy image to break up all the boring text! =P

Anyway....

First of all, I want to ask a few questions that I would very much like answers to in regards to the fanfiction contest mentioned in the two previous updates (If you don't know what I'm talking about, just check out the update before this one, or the one before that).

-First, I've heard some comments of discomfort with the image that I presented to base the contest entries around (again, check out the previous update, you'll see what I mean), and looking through their eyes, I can't say I blame those people too much; it depicts Hinata, a character that many love, being chained to a post with two insertions in both of her... lower areas. Yeah, sexy though it is, it's kinda hard not to think of dark thoughts when trying to write something about an image like that. In addition, it may possibly be going a little overboard on my part when this is the first contest on this blog, so... that brings me to my big question.

Should a different image with more comfortable subject matter be used in place of the current one? 

-My second question is in regards to the contest premise as a whole. Is there anyone who's legitimately interested in taking part in any of these contest? Is there something about this that you're unsure of? Is there something about the contest rules or concept that you think needs being changed? Please, share your thoughts! I honestly don't know if anyone's reading what I'm writing, nor do I feel like any of my work, especially in the blog, is being noticed by enough people, beyond simply my regular correspondents.


Lastly, I would like to make a note that I do wish that more people express an interest in these contests. Not just because I like the idea of it, but because I have a genuine interest in seeing first hand the creativity of my reviewers. It pleases me that there are people out there who appreciate my work and the time and effort I put into it, and I'm deeply interested in seeing their own sense of creativity. I may call it a 'contest' all the time, but really, I just want everyone to have a fun time writing! 

This is all meant to be in good fun, not a competition, and just the idea of how many possibilities for stories can come out of one depiction honestly excites me! So to see so few responses showing interest in this story writing concept is really disappointing :/ Well, anyways, moving onto our last item on the agenda....

Literature contest reminder, and a bone I have to pick with some people about Kushina's Wife Test

Okay, so let's start things off on a more fun topic; A while back, I've had the idea of holding a literary contest on this blog for anyone interested in participating.

For those of you who missed it, the rules are quite simple; I provide you with an image, and your objective is to write a oneshot/short story fic that in someway connects to the picture provided. I only ask that you use proper spelling, grammar, and punctuation throughout, that you write a minimum of 3000 words, and refrain from any sort of fetishes that detract too much from the image of focus (vore, expansion, foot, etc).

And here is the image in question that your fics should be centered around:

(Disclaimer: Image belongs to Slave Toon. I claim no ownership of this image in any way!)

 So... yeah! I hope this image gives you the inspiration to come up with something awesome! ^____^ Oh, and you're free to write and post your entry wherever you please, just as long as you provide a link to your finished work. And to make things interesting, if you're familiar with my story "Sex Education: Anko Mitarashi Style," aka "SE:AMS", you're free to set your entry in the realm of this story's timeline, just as long as you credit SE:AMS to me.

Whoever wins this contest gets a free oneshot fanfic commission from me, and it WON'T take over a year to complete! :P

Anyway, if this contest interests you, I do require a minimum of 5 participants, so spread the word to as many people as you can!
