Okay, so we may have some particpants/authors joining for the first time for Adventurous Contest including myself. What good tips can u give us?
P.S. For me, winning or losing doesnt matter. Trying your best always matters. So, after the contest, you did it, u gave it your best shot even if u didnt make the shelf. U had fun, help, a good experience.
Lets hear from u guys. 
What a coincidence, I joined my first contest as well as writing my first story here.
This may be applied to most stories, but SPEND. YOUR. TIME. WISELY. I made the mistake thinking I could accomplish finishing the 2nd and 3rd episodes in an orderly fashion in a few days. Yeah, yikes, depending on the level of directing you want to put in, expect you may need a couple more hours or days than you would think. lol
lol yep.
who can make a chapter a couple of days? I need a month
but I also have ADHD and are dyslexia so I canāt work for too long at a time. so it may be faster if you dont have to struggle with those two
but here is a tip, have a storyline. know where you are going with the story. wing it is the worst you can do cause you will hit a wall
I myself dont have time to be in the contest. I have a busy month. I else had a pretty good idea
Yeah 
myself and @NICOLE94 are entering together!
General tips that everyone probably knows already:
I wrote this on an old thread and Iām definitely no expert lol, but maybe this will help?
awesome.
Iām not a professional because this is only my second story and the long amount of years on episode I still donāt know half of the things and how to use them. Definitely, ask for help when needed, make your story BIG unique, Plot before writing
The biggest tip I can giveā¦
Manage your time!
I was going to participate in MC contest but Iām so dumb I thought I could write 3 episodes in a week(donāt judge pls)
With this adventurous contest, not going to do the same stupid mistake again so Iām already working on the story. 7 weeks
Write what you love and not for the reads so that when it ends you still have the motivation and willingness to continue to the finish. And when you do you will feel accomplished and satisfied. That itself is an achievement.
Know the requirements of the contest and the rules.
Know your story well to see if tu fits in the genre.
Dont expect to win nor get as much reads even after contest is over. Just hold your head up high with a great self esteem and just keep going and going and going. #MakeYourStoryMovieWorthy
Donāt make your episodes too too long because youāll likely lose reader retention, but also donāt make it too short.
Donāt overcrowd w/ spot directing - this can cause crashing in older phones, which will hurt your retention.
Wow your readers in every chapter! Leave them on a cliffhanger. You want them to continue reading every episode.
lol
S. Langdon has a great blog:
I entered the College Days writers contest and had such a positive experience! (Note: I was not selected for the shelf).
Win or lose, itās a great way to start getting your name out there and generate interest in your work!
Tips I would share are:
I have so much to write, kind of stuff Iāve seen from past winners.
Soā¦ your story is actually not graded unless you have 100 reads, which, isnāt that hard to get if you make a viral story.
Iād suggest you check out what the past winners put in their story. Unknown or known, most winners are viral stories, you can put what they put.
Mostly;
Yeah, thatās about it. 
awesome tips guys 
Iām entering the adventurous contest, wish me luck
