Happy Pride Month!

Hi! It is inevitable in a collection of stories that some of them will be tragedies – however, the majority of Yuri Garden collections are happy ending stories. I’m therefore not sure what you mean.

The anthology collections do include content warnings, though, which should provide some clues as to whether a story will be happy or sad. If you are for some reason unable to read unhappy or bittersweet endings, I would advise sticking to these collections

Or here on NUF: https://forum.novelupdates.com/threads/winter-lilies-a-yuri-garden-anthology.160777/

The currently available prompts are:

1. Centaur yuri

8. Ghost/girl she's following. Girl is creeped out at first but they have more in common than they think.

9. Stepmother x daughter. The stepmother marries the father of her crush (who is rich) and kills the father.

10. Strong Body, but Soft Heart Meets a Tease

12. A soft and loving smut story between a futanari queen and her beloved female consort. Vanilla, with no BDSM or hentai elements, and written for the female gaze.

14. A 2nd chance GL set in China, in which the MC is reborn and (metaphorically) face-slaps those who wronged her in her last life, and chooses a different lover in this life, thus getting the happy ending she deserves. It's a common trope, but I never see it in GL.

(Update)

4. Can See Ghosts x Possessive Ghost (Pun, Intended?)

11. Village Girl in College and a Tsundere Rich Girl who Keep Encountering Each Other​

Sure~! You have until 23:59pm (GMT) on the 10h of December to submit a valid first draft.

thank you!

Is an author allowed to write an additional story for the contest?
If so, can I reserve 15, about the peasant trans woman and warrior queen?

@Bokuboy You're allowed to write as many stories as you'd like~!

Prompt #15 is now reserved for you. You have until 23:59pm (GMT) on the 7th of December to submit a valid first draft.

The futanari prompt requests a smut story and most of its specifications are just asking for a particular type of smut. It assigns the roles of queen to the futanari and consort to her lover, but otherwise only asks for a dynamic/atmosphere that's soft and loving.

The consort and queen could have any type of personality, and the consort could play any role in the country's management. She could be an intelligent and witty political ally to the queen, or lead their armies. How they met and married is also completely up to the author.

On the other hand, the trans bride prompt requests a fluff story. It says the trans bride has to begin as a peasant, partially specifies the personality and role of the queen (has to be a warrior queen), and requires a dynamic where the trans bride's role in the relationship is to be swept off her feet and to live a pampered life.

It doesn't say how the queen came across the peasant, though, or what made her whisk her away, etc.

And neither of these prompts specify a setting. Authors have a lot of options that could diverge these stories completely.

Overall, what isn't said matters as much as what is in these prompts.

(And thank you for your interest~!)

If you'd like to reserve one to write, please let me know~!

hello, may I take number 12? is the slot still empty?

@yurifutalover It is~! I've updated it to be reserved by you now. You have until 23:59pm (GMT) on the 12th of November to submit a valid first draft.

thank you
