The contest starts Tuesday, May 1st. <BR/><BR/>It's just a friendly way to encourage writing from people of all stripes. Last time, we had some folks who had never before attempted to write fiction sitting alongside published novelists. The emphasis is on the writing, and the entrants themselves choose who gets prizes.<BR/><BR/>Thanks very much for the mention, and I'm sorry about the midnight confusion.

It reminds me of the old Woody Allen joke in which Woody recounts how he has taken a speed reading course, and that he read the whole of War and Peace in half an hour.

It's holding the book, seeing the words and being in a place where what I am reading is actually taking over my thoughts....it's NOT being stuck in traffic and listening to words.
