New Contest

Jason Evans has just announced his newest contest at his Clarity of Night blog. This is the tenth contest and I'm looking forward to writing a flash and entering. This contest has prizes but those aside, this is one of the best web experiences for writers. The stories are posted as they come in and comments are open and everyone shares their thoughts and ideas about writing and the stories. It's great fun. Pasted below is the announcement, you can find the contest picture here http://clarityofnight.blogspot.com/2008/12/contest-preview-ascension.html

Past Contest Participants and Friends:

I'm kicking off 2009 with a new Clarity of Night short fiction contest! Since my last contest was in the summer, I'm pumping this one up! More and bigger prizes!! First place will earn an Amazon gift certificate of $50. Also, I'm adding additional prizes for second and third place winners of the Readers Choice Award.
The contest will open on Tuesday, January 6th and will be open for just over one week. As with past contests, the limit is 250 words. Any genre or form is welcome so long as it is inspired by the "Ascension" photo. Rules will be posted when the contest opens, but they will be the same as the last contest posted here: http://clarityofnight.blogspot.com/2008/07/running-wind-short-fiction-contest.html
I'm giving everyone an early peek at the picture so participants can start thinking of what they'd like to write. I've attached a copy. Also, if you'd like to post an announcement on your own blog/site to spread the word, it would be greatly appreciated!!

See you all soon,

You're welcome, Barbara. It's a challenge to come up with a 250 word story for Jason's photos but always so much fun.
