The Bulwer-Lytton Fiction Contest
While slacking off at work this evening I came across this fiction contest that celebrates bad writing, The Bulwer-Lytton Fiction Contest. People submit an opening sentence for a fake novel. They just announced the winner for this year’s contest. Garrison Spik won with this opening:
“Theirs was a New York love, a checkered taxi ride burning rubber, and like the city their passion was open 24/7, steam rising from their bodies like slick streets exhaling warm, moist, white breath through manhole covers stamped “Forged by DeLaney Bros., Piscataway, N.J.”
The runner ups as well as winners in the various genre categories can be found here. Anybody can enter and you can enter as many times as you would like. Really there is no reason not to give it a shot. Naturally, read the rules first.
