The
Rules:
• Write the best story you can under 2500 words (include word count on
manuscript).
What should your "Love Bites"
contest entry be about? Anything that has to do with a love relationship that
doesn't quite live up to expectations. You can interpret from there (no, it
doesn't necessarily mean vampire stories, though they are permitted). Be creative!
• Send it to us at contest@moonlit-path.com
by May 12th, 2007.
• Please include a bio to be published if your story is chosen as a winner
or honorable mention.
The Prize:
The Grand Prize winner will receive $25 cash plus a copy of You Suck! A Love Story, by Christopher Moore.
Praise for You
Suck!:
"... Moore writes with the jittery energy of a brilliant, charming
class clown, mixing sex and gore and a potty mouth with a goofy-sweet sensibility
to deliver laughs on nearly every page..."
-Publishers Weekly
"...A laugh-a-page
novel that’s raunchy and irreverent..."
-USA Today
"Fun, funny and just a little bit gross -- what more could anyone ask?
Grade: A"
-Rocky Mountain News
"Think of a collaboration among Anne Rice, S.J. Perelman and Pedro Almodóvar."
-Kirkus Reviews
Grand Prize Winner and Honorable Mentions will be published in the May Issue
of Tales from the Moonlit Path.
