Contests

It’s hard to believe that we’re practically half-way through September already, but the calender does not lie. In a month and a half, I will be officially closing the Submissions for my first attempt at a literary review, World Unknown. I have, unfortunately, not had the time to promote it as much as I would…

Over at Mark, Mark posts a lot of very cool, very random images, some of which I find too inspirational to ignore. The other day, he posted this beauty: And I thought, “How perfect!” The imagery, to me, was very “Down the Rabbit-Hole,” which is the theme for the first annual issue of my anthology,…

I have been sitting on this idea for a while now, since the beginning of the year, and, as we head into June, the middle of the year, I realized that I’d better get my butt moving on it if I wanted to accomplish this idea before 2013’s eventual conclusion (which is likely to happen…

Well, okay, not exactly free, but I did get your attention, didn’t I? Stay with me, though, it may as well be free. So, I’ve got ten copies of my collection of short stories, Bowlful of Bunnies, to give away to interested parties. I’d love to sign them and personalize them a little bit, too,…

So, an interesting thing happened two nights ago, as I sat down and went to type up my “at least a page” of Serpent in a Cage. I was typing away, frowning a little to myself because things weren’t panning out as I thought they had. At first, I chalked it up to that distance…

“Oh, and Brad Pitt would not play me in the movie adaptation. Sandra Bernhard will.” “Tune In Tokyo: The Gaijin Diaries” by Tim Anderson The ghost of David Sedaris haunts the pages of Tim Anderson’s Tune In Tokyo. Okay, no, David Sedaris is (thankfully) not dead, but his own memoirs and experience in culture shock,…

So, I’ve taken a little bit of a break from writing and from the blog to have some well-spent time with a friend, which I have a feeling I’ll be doing a lot of on the weekends if this new schedule that gives me Sundays off stays consistent. From what I hear, this is typical…

“Better dead than undead.” “Alice in Deadland” by Mainak Dhar Anyone who knows me well will know that, among my extensive list of Loves, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and zombies are pretty high on the list. I’m sure this is true for a pretty healthy amount of people, too, so I’m sure they’d be just…

Over at Frame Tale, Kate did a challenge post that she had come across that I just had to give a stab at myself. I love these little games, where you get the chance to showcase a little bit of your work. It’s also pretty useful for those days when you don’t have much else…

After giving it some thought, I’ve decided that I’m going to go ahead and do it. I’m going to hold a writing contest. This thought seems new and strange to me, though, really, it shouldn’t, since I produced an anthology for my writing group in college, though that wasn’t so much of a contest as…
