To Revise
This portion of the contest is open to anyone who is not judging. It is best f you have already submitted something to revise in the first part, but if not you can note =VertigoArt with the piece and he will determine whether or not you may participate with that piece. Ideally the piece you are revising is a free write that you are taking from conception to perfection, but any piece that is not polished fully will do.
The winner of the first portion of this contest will be on even ground with everyone else in this portion.
The deadline for entries is December 7, 2012

To what extent can the piece be revised exactly? For example so long as the original spirit of the piece is kept in place but its practically re-written, would it still be applicable for the second half of the contest?
If the point of this contest is to take a hastily-written piece and improve it as much as possible, I'm guessing that would be alright, but it seemed worth checking. I'm guessing others--particularly those who may not have got anything in for Part 1--might also be interested to know for sure.
Thank you.
