Contest: Picture Worth 1000 Words?
My friend Avril (via Lance) has some interesting images in her collection, such as this man with a big, um, gigantic… you know.
There is the cliché that a picture is worth a thousand words. So here’s a first on ShindoTV, a writing contest. I can’t give away any cash prizes, gasoline for a year, or even a car. However, you can have a broadcast on ShindoTV. Essentially, I’m putting up a contest for the best vignette (actually less than 1000 words) based on this picture. I will publish the best submission.
Here are the rules:
- Written piece must be based on the picture above.
- Entries must be brief written pieces: prose (100-300 words) or poem (20 lines max).
- Check your work before you send it. I cannot make corrections.
- Submissions must be sent by e-mail. Send all entries to shinichi@shindotv.com and put “Vignette for ShindoTV” in the subject line.
- Include your name, location (city, state, country), and website URL (if available) in the e-mail. Put “Copyright” or © next to your name at the bottom of the work.
- Vignettes must be submitted by February 20th, 12:00am PST.
The winning entry will be posted on March 3, 2009. Be creative.
