Anesor Posted June 17, 2014 Report Share Posted June 17, 2014 I heard about this contest years ago, it's named for the author of some real dogs of first sentences of a story. You've heard his most famous phrase, used by Snoopy at his typewriter: "It was a dark and stormy night..." What I didn't know was that the contest is still going on! You can read many of the past winners at the site. The actual deadline for this year's award is in two weeks, but they accept entries year round so don't worry. They have multiple categories from adventure to romance to purple prose and the max entries a year is really high so I highly encourage people to take a look. Last year's winner was an engineer. Fiction opening contest (and let us know if you place!) BronxWench 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
