Free Short Story Writing Contest

I ran across a short story writing contest. If you check out Bebo Author - a writing blog - they are currently holding the contest with a deadline of March 21, 2008 and a minimum of 1,000 words. The contest is open to anyone, entry is free and you can basically write about whatever the heck you want, so long as it is in a short story form.

I already have a story stew simmering on the range, so this was a nice find. Gives me a deadline, forces me to actually work on it. I hope anyone out there with an inkling to write might take up this opportunity. If you need help, I am happy to offer some editing skills, or just a pair of ears to bounce ideas into.

Check it out at Bebo Author Writing Contest. Don't forget to check out the rest of their site, they have some very helpful information on writing and publishing as well.
