Oki doki, i'm holding a SHORT STORY contest! (re-posted in case people didn't see it)

Guidelines

What are you writing?: A short story about what YOU would do if you met Jack Frost and had one day together. AKA: How do you spend it?
More specifically?: Where would you guys go? What would you do? Remember, you only have 1 day together.
From what persepctive?:It should be written from FIRST or THIRD person.
How long?: About the length of the first chapter of The Night Meeting.
What if it's not as long as that?: Do your best to make it about that length, but a bit shorter is all right Half of Night Meeting is alright with me!

You will be judged on..
- Believability
-If Jack is in character. He's a prankster, and a teenager. Keep that in mind.
-Grammar. I wont be picky about spelling, but do nawt rite like dis. U feel meh?
-Setting. It's simple, set it up. I want to know where you and Jack are.
-Atmosphere. Describe what is around you, and where you are. I should be able to picture exactly what is going on in my mind.
-Creativity. Is is something we have all seen before, or is it something new and unique?

WINNERS AND PRIZES.

There will be 3 winners.
Each winner will recieve a miniature Jack Frost charm depicting his staff. It will be handmade by me out of clay, and painted according to the colours. It will come with a loop so you can attatch a chain to it if you'd like. It will be sent by mail in a small box.
