The Monthly PAW: July 2020

sweetjacky

Another month, another PAW! This time I included some summer themed topics : I'm really excited to be hosting this once again and hope to get as many submissions as last month : How to join: Joining is simple. All you need to do is send me a pm titled "PAW July 2020" including your submission(s). You can only submit one entry per category but you can take part in all the categories. For uploading images make sure to use imgur.com to upload them. You can find the rules and all information about the contest here: "The Monthly PAW Returns! The deadline will be Friday, the 24th of July and I will post the voting thread on the day after. The Topics: P for Photograhpy: Refreshments - It's been quite hot outside for a lot of our users so I thought it would be nice to see some photos of something that refreshes you in this heat. : A for Art: Swimwear/Beachwear - Summer just started which means it's time for the beach episode of VCC. This month I want to see some art of characters wearing swimwear or beachwear to get that summer vibe : : W is for Writing: Isekai - It's time to have stories again. Write a story of the Isekai genre. For those who don't know what isekai is, you clearly haven't seen much anime. : JK, here's a definition of the genre: Isekai (Japanese: 異世界, transl. "different world") is a subgenre of Japanese fantasy light novels, manga, anime, and video games revolving around a normal person from Earth being transported to, reborn, or trapped in a parallel universe. Often, this universe already exists in the protagonist's world as a fictional universe, but it may also be unknown to them, as is the case with Sonic X. The new universe can be an entirely different world where only the protagonist has any memory of their former life, as in Saga of Tanya the Evil, or one that they reincarnate in. It may also be one where a formerly virtual world turns into a real one, such as in Log Horizon and Overlord. I'm really looking forward to seeing all the submissions and I hope you like the topics! : PS: If you have any questions, feel free to ask ;) Love, Jacky
