/lit/ please help me out here.
Recently I took part in writing contest in Vienna. Now in the first phase of this contest everybody is allowed to vote for their favourite story. Unfortunately very few people have voted for mine, althoug i feel a lot of the others are worse (or at least not better) and a friend told me most people share their stories on facebook or other internet forums to get votes. So if you could take the time, I'd appreciate you voting for my story.

Do you really want to win a literature competition that's based on public voting?

That's a popularity contest. You're not gonna win.

>>7204223
I don't care about the prestige but the winner gets to take part in a workshop with some locally famous writers. I feel like that's a great chance to improve my writing, also networking.

Stell dich in eine Ecke und denk' scharf nach, warum das so ist.

Yeah, I know but there's a 2500 character limit and the topic was given. All the others did a typicall "Does money equal happines?" or "How much is a human soul worth" text but I guess that sells.

You should be expelled and banned from competition.

I'm pretty sure a lot of the other competitors, at least the one with a lot of votes, do the same.
I know i probably seem like a douchebag.

>pandering to locally famous writers
Thomas Bernhard would be disappointed. Perhaps his hatred for Austria was justified.

But you're right, the other texts are really not better. Sorry that you got fucked by this voting thing. vox populi, vox rindvieh, that's how it is.

(You also have no idea how to use commas mate. Maybe let someone else go through your text before you try to enter a competition?)

Is it bad to want an exchange with famous minds? Not to mention that knowing people in the business could make it easier to get puplished...
