Prose That Blows 500

Sun Jul 5, 2009, 3:00 AM
Greetings readers!

Thirteen authors of expansive literature have come together to present teensy-weensy short stories for the "Prose That Blows 500" competition. Each story is five-hundred words or less and contains some form of expansion to suit almost everyone's palate. The works have been submitted anonymously to prevent contestants to win just on name alone.

Now that the entries have been submitted, it's time to vote for your favorite in one of ten these categories (I hope that ~Inflate123 doesn't mind that I copied the list out of his journal):

- Best Story
- Best Character
- Best Expansion Description
- Sexiest Story
- Best Method of Expansion
- Character you'd like to fu... "gain carnal knowledge of"
- Most epic plot crammed into the limited space
- Stephen King award for most disturbing story
- Best use of tension
- Most believable expandee reaction

You can read the stories by clicking on this [link] - you can scroll using the arrows on the right to select the story.

You may then vote by clicking on this [link]

The voting lasts until July 10th, whereupon the authors will reveal what stories belong to them. The writers have been revealed to be:

Cyndi Irresistable
~doubleintegral
~dragon6860
~harrisonford08
~Inflate123
~InvizKing - that's me!
~Kurg
~LutherVKane
~Pakona
~Spiderhaunt
~T-Danger
~theManWithaMagicMind
The Mysterious Thirteenth Writer

Special thanks to ~Carnatic, who initiated the contest but wasn't able to enter because the really-real world stinks.

Onlookers was such a good story, popping has grown on me with your stories, and you make them entertaining in how the world can view over indulgence.

I am the Angel of BE! Hear my wings, as they flap hard to keep me in the air, from the weight of my BE powers being put to good use! See the sight of pure beauty, as my shirt rips from the strain of my boobs being too big for my tight shirt to contain!!
