In light of Curtiss Ann's recent post about Twitter, I thought folks here might be interested in this fun little contest:
BookViewCafe.com is holding its very first Twitter-Fic contest! The task: To write a complete story incorporating the contest theme in one tweet (126 characters or fewer). The prize: An autographed copy of Pati Nagle's brand new release THE BETRAYAL. The judges: A crack team of noted authors: Pati Nagle, Jennifer Stevenson and Sarah Zettel. Stories will be judged on creative use of the theme and the medium.
The Theme: Elf meets Vampire
The timeline: The contest opens at 9 am EST Friday April 10 and closes 9pm Sunday April 12.
