Over at one of my fav sites, DO SOME DAMAGE they have just announced a great opportunity to have your writing displayed on their site and a chance to win some swag. Basically, it's a Christmas themed crime story with a 600 -1000 word count.
I have been thinking about a new short, but nothing gives me a kick in the arse like a challenge or a contest. It's the competitor in me and the word count is a nice relief from the 80,000 I'm working on now.
All the details can be found HERE
Thanks for the lead and link. It sounds fun, if I happen to come up with an idea.
ReplyDeleteAh, nothing says "Ho Ho Ho" like shaking up the snowflakes at a wintry crime scene. Thanks for the tipoff. ~ Absolutely*Kate
ReplyDeleteSeana- My pleasure. Cant wait for SPAM-Part 2 ;)
ReplyDeleteA*K- Just doing my part, while I rack my brain to come up with something.
Apparently, according to the rules, you could just write, "It was Christmas Day", and then write whatever you want.
ReplyDeleteYeah, SPAM, Part 2--gotta get going on that...
Thanks for the heads up on this, Sean. (I never know what's going on - I rely on you, Paul and Ian to keep me right!) Anyway, I have written and submitted a heartwarming festive tale - I'll link to it from GB when it's up at DSD. Thanks again - I'm really looking forward to seeing what you and the other participants come up with - should make for some great Christmas reading! :)
ReplyDeleteJulie- Can't wait to see what you came up with. We're all in this together and when we all hit it big...
