My entry is here: http://textbookpillow.wordpress.com/2013/07/24/the-most-beautiful-girl-in-the-room-or-she-was-beautiful-hooded/
My plot generator was: “The story starts when your protagonist is abducted. Another character is a model who believes your protagonist has wronged him/her.” It was awesome.
