Why! Hello Blog!
* /tone of surprise, eyebrows raised *
That's more than two months out of the offing.
And this is a blog-saving post. :|
Well, the saying goes,
The prospect of unpaid publicity arouses even the laziest.
Or maybe, I coined it right now. Never mind.
One of my major motivations (probably the only one) to take part in QUiCK TALES, a Flash Fiction writing contest jointly organised by Caferati and LiveJournal, was, the beginning of my engineering mid-semester exams coincided with the fateful last date of the contest; and I just had to do anything, anything other than studies :|
Theme: Journal (in any which way that you can interpret it)
Word limit: Not more than 500 words. 
Mine motive was pure time-pass, but I learnt a few days ago, to shock, and speechlessness, that both the entries that I had submitted somehow found their way into the final 100 shortlisted ones! And one of the prizes, The People's Choice Prize depends on junta ka vote; bole toh, you people need to go and read those stories and rate them on a scale of 1 to 10, and they'll calculate an average score on Doomsday.
The poll is open only to LJ members, so you need to register on LiveJournal to rate. Sign up over here, it's just a 30 seconds ka jhamela, and you can forget all about the account after you've rated the stories
Here go mine, to hum and blackcurrant rum (:D)
Just go and read the stuff!
Feedback would be greatly appreciated. (Mail, blog, or journal :D)
Don't worry! You won't be inflicted with more than 5 minutes of my writing. The word limit left no chance for the scrollbar!
And of course, goes without ado, the rest of the shortlisted stories.
Poll closes in a few weeks!
- Mood: Shock, wearing off
