I've decided to enter the 24-hour short story contest sponsored by Writers Weekly.
It could be fun and the prizes are good. The entry fee is only $5.00.
Basically, they publish a theme and a length on a specific date. This year, that is Jan 21, 2012. Then you have 24 hours to write a story and get it back to them on time.
I think they get quite a few entries, so the competition can be stiff. Nevertheless, I've read the top three winners from last year (Writers Weekly Summer 2011 Contest Winners), and I think I can compete.
I especially like the first one. I would have written a different ending for the third one! (There's my ego again.)
At any rate, I'm entered. You can too, at Writers Weekly Winter 2012 Contest
Here you can follow the blow-by-blow account of my attempt to transform myself into a (regularly) published author.
