You guys made me laugh so hard I was forced to shut the door to my office while I read your entries!
A great solace on a cold, windy NYC afternoon.
Here are the entries that stood out in a very crowded field!
Brandi M. 8:45am
#2 This was the only human suit I could find.
Brian Wells 9:25am
My advice? You get a good man, hang on to him. Alphonse,
here? First time I asked him to dispose of a body, he flinched. But his
brother, Rodrigo -- what a guy. When I asked him to dispose of Alphonse, he
didn't bat an eye. Good man, that Rodrigo.
Matthew Masucci 9:52am
“So, tell me, how do you like being the eye-candy at BEA,
gentlemen?”
“We’re actually activists.”
“For what?”
“We’re members of an organization that is battling headless models on Romance
covers.”
“What’s organization is that?”
“It’s clever, really. No Bed ‘til Head.”
“We’re really tired of the objectification of men”
MM 9:59am
Man 1: "We're twins--conjoined. I'm so used to Adam
that it seem weird to me that most people don't have their twin's tiny head
growing out of their shoulder."
Man 2: "I had a twin. I ate him."
Kregger 10:15am
“Hey, cool shirt. I love, love, love the parody, Got Sex?
who’d thunk it?”
“Thanks, Caveman. Have we met?”
“Sure, in Philosophy lab.”
“Oh! I didn’t recognize you without the horn-rimmed glasses and pocket
protector.”
“I’m near-sighted.”
“You still dance at Wild Rockets?"
“Yeah…who sponsors you?"
"Christian Mingle dot com."
A 10:37am
Seriously man? Cool. I write New Adult too. Mine’s about a
personal trainer who leaves The Shore for The City, falls in love with hat
design and his roommate along the way. 'Man Hat In'. Almost a memoir.”
M.R. Pritchard 11:42pm
This has got to be one of the best meat-suits I’ve found on
this godforsaken planet. “Hello ladies, would you like to sign up for a chance
to win a private query pitch?”
“Don’t creep them out.”
“Relax, I’ve go-”
“The only thing you’ve got is a deadline. We need three for the sacrifice.”
And the winner cause it was just plum perfect:
JD Paradise 2:44pm
"This is just to say --"
"Yeah?"
"--I have drunken the protein shake."
"From the icebox? I was saving that--"
"For breakfast, I know. Forgive me. It was disgusting. Too sweet. But very
cold."
JD if you'll email me your mailing address and the kinds of books you like to read we'll fix you up with a prize!
Thanks to everyone who participated!
