Welcome to the May EMDAS Writing Competition!(Rules - READ FIRST!)
Theme: Lies!

"Oh! What a tangled web we begin to weave when first we practice to deceive!"
Marmion, Sir Walter Scott

This month's theme is 'Lies'! "For this theme, the entry should revolve about a deception. This may be a deliberate falsehood or an unintentional untruth, and it can be either malicious or benign."

Entries! (May 2-15)

For the first two weeks of the competition, all entrants may post their draft entries on this page and receive suggestions and criticism without any consequences. Nothing posted during this entry period will be taken as your final entry. Constant posting of small edits and similar drafts are frowned against, as it clutters up the pages and gets in the way of other entries.

By 11:59:59 PM of May 14th, you must post your final entry on this page with the words: "Final Entry" included in large bold letters included after your entry. If you've already posted a draft and edited it from there, please re-post your final entry as a new post. This makes it easier to find and organize.
The time zone being used here is Pacific Standard Time (PST). Use this counter to see how much time you have left.

This will become your entry for the month, and can no longer be edited - no exceptions! Be very sure to proofread and edit your entry completely before taking this final step. To emphasize, only write Final Entry on your piece once you're 100% sure it is perfect. Once you write those bold words on your project, your entry will be taken "as is" at that point and no further editing will be allowed.
