Fearless Reader,
I entered and submitted a short story into a writing contest just this week. This is the first of the year and the first in my commitment to enter one each month for the rest of the year. This goal will be achieved as I have entered the same contest for the remainder of 2011 so I guess the challenge will be to enter some other contests as well.
This contest is held by Wynterblue Publishing and it is a 24 hour challenge, in which I am given certain words that must be included in the story and a subject to follow and I have 24 hours to complete a story of under 2500 words.
It took me about two hours, banging away at the keyboard to finish the story and I'm pretty happy with it. I have yet to read it myself however I had a blast writing it and the friends and family that have read it, if they are being honest, have given me some very positive feedback.
I will keep you posted FR as to whether or not my piece is selected for publication and if so where you can find it online or in hardcopy.
This Zombie Warrior is finally trying to live the dream!
