Summer Esquire Fiction contest from one of three titles
Here is the link to Esquire’s Summer Fiction Contest.
The titles are:
1. “Twenty-Ten”
2. “An Insurrection”
3. “Never, Ever Bring This Up Again”
SO WRITE!!!
It’s simple enough for anyone who’s familiar with the Firestarter Exercises. Titles is a good exercise because of its ambiguity. A while ago NPR issued a challenge to fiction writers to write a story that included the image of a wedding cake in the middle of the road. Richard Bausch’s Tandolfo the Great introduced me to the collection NPR put together. It’s a fun assignment to try to work to your own whims.
