Vote on the Prose that Blows 500!

Posted By on July 4, 2009

Carnatic’s Prose that Blows 500 short-inflation-story contest has concluded — now the judging is underway. Thirteen stories made it in before the deadline, and you can read them all here. The authors’ real names are hidden until after the judging is over. Once you check out all the tiny tales, consider your favorites in ten categories:

- Best Story
- Best Character
- Best Expansion Description
- Sexiest Story
- Best Method of Expansion
- Character you’d like to fuck
- Most epic plot crammed into the limited space
- Stephen King award for most disturbing story
- Best use of tension
- Most believable expandee reaction

Made up your mind? Vote here! You only have until July 10.

I am really glad that this had such a strong turnout. It was a great creative challenge for the writers (it was for me, anyway) and it generated some new content for the community. I hope we get to do something like it again soon.
