Stories are judged on various factors, such as written quality (spelling, punctuation, and grammar), originality, and how well it relates the chosen phrase.

As much as we'd love you to write to your heart's content, we can only accept one story per user for this contest. Choose your team wisely and write your literary shout out in favor of Love or Heartbreak!

Simple: just fill this and you're in! (Please pay attention as every language has its own submission form.)
