Toki Pona Art Competitions

Writers of Toki Pona! Your time has come.

What is my task?

  • Write a small story and send it to me when it’s time.

What should the story be?

  • Your story should be in Toki Pona only.
  • Your story should be amusing.
  • Don’t translate a story from another language to toki pona. Write something new!
  • The number of words must be more than 500.
  • Only submit your own work. Don’t submit someone else’s work.

What should I say in the story?

  • Talk about a time that didn’t really happen, and say anything good you want!
  • But nothing bad. Don’t promote bad ideas. Don’t talk too much about sex or violence.

When do I need to submit the story?

  • 2022-07-15

Where do I need to submit the story?

  • Send your story to me (jan Lakuse) using Discord (Raacz106#5873) or Email (tokipona.sasalin@gmail.com).
  • Tell me a few things! Send your Toki Pona name and your Discord name. Also send the name of your story.

What is the competition?

  • When submissions are all done, everyone will look at the stories and say what they think. We’ll find out which story the community thinks is the best!
  • So don’t send your story to a lot of people or talk about what’s in your story to a lot of people. When it’s time to look, no one should know who wrote which story.
  • Once everyone’s done looking, you can talk about everything!

What else do I need to know?

  • You can submit multiple stories!
  • Be aware: I will post your story on this website and everyone will be able to see it. If you don’t want this, don’t submit a story!
  • If you change your story after sending it to me, you can send it again!
