Default Anyone up for a writing competition of some sort?

I'm going to have a go at trying to get stuff submitted to magazines, and a mate of a mate runs a magazine so I'm going to try my luck there, but I've not written in a couple years so need to get back into practice. Which got me thinking...

The photographers have their thing, and I know there's got to be writers on here too, so does anyone fancy having a friendly little competion?

I was thinking short stories, based on an agreed topic/title/content with a maximum word count and time limit. It could be quite fun

Anyone interested at all?

“Shoot me with your shotgun and keep what’s left,” Play-doh Amy concluded, leaning back against the moist collage she had created using the entrails of her lover, “But leave my eyes for the seagulls.”
Up until now, Play-doh Amy had claimed to be a virgin. Pure, lily-white and untouched.

well, my CV has been described as one of the greatest works of fiction in the English language, so I'm up for that.
