The rules are simple:
Each entry must be ONE sentence only, as defined by the basic rules of English grammar. We will notice if you squeeze unrelated clauses together and pretend it's a sentence, so please don't do it. Your entry will be disqualified and removed.
Don’t comment on other people's entries – this makes the thread far less readable. If you’d like to make a general comment – or if you have a question – then please do so in this Café Life thread under the “One Perfect Sentence” prefix. I will keep checking the thread to answer any questions. If you have a question you don't want others to read, please private message me directly.
You can make as many entries as you want to, but only your entry with the greatest number of votes will win a place (and Litbits).
IMPORTANT: You MUST make your entry anonymous by ticking the “Posting as Anonymous?” box. Entries that don’t do this will be removed.
Entries close Midnight (BST).
Head over to the One Perfect Sentence (OPS) forum and post your entries there.
