'Tis time for the funnest contest of them all, Halloween, when stars and planets hurry to align and the veil between realms becomes thinnest, inviting unspeakable things to reach through into our world and fiddle with our imaginations.
You are invited to write and submit 8 pages* by close of day Thursday 28th October. That'll give us 3 days to read the entries and vote. Why before Halloween? Because after Halloween, the spark of enthusiasm will die and everyone will wander away.
When you're finished creating your masterpiece, export text or PDF file and send to dpaterson57 at gmail.com
You don't have to use Halloween motifs and tropes if you don't want to, although that is kind of what the contest is all about and what readers might expect to find. Summon a demon after midnight tonight under the light of the pale moon and ask them for advice on this if you're unsure.
Perhaps you might indicate your interest by replying here, so we'll have an idea of whether the contest will run or not.
* that's 8 pages maximum... your entry can be shorter if you prefer.
For posterity, the entries thread is here and the results thread is here.
