Contest Description
What to Submit?
1 original Pleiades starting with the Letter J. Remember: One word title starting with J.
7 lines with 6 syllables each starting with J; must describe or depict the title in some way.
No hyphennated words or personal names can be used for title. Can use the name of a Country.
Check your syllable counts on syllablecount.com. We had a problem with accuracy with howmanysyllables.com on the last contest, so we'll give this one a try.
I'm looking for lines that flow smoothly, not just short choppy statements, and imagery.
J isn't as easy as some of the other letters, but I'm sure you'll manage to wow me.
