Whoa! A contest a day for 7 days!!

Write a story in 128 characters!
(Makes the contests here on this blog look like tomes!)

128 character stories, drawing inspiration from this wonderful photo from Terry Borders new book BENT OBJECTS OF MY AFFECTION!

"If loving you is wrong, I don't want to be right!"


You enter by posting a tweet (128characters!) to @FairbankLit
(tweets are 140 max, but the @FairbankLit takes up 12)

There is a new contest every day!

Follow @FairbankLit to keep up on the photos.  You can enter each one.

Each day's winner receives a copy of the book.

I'm a DEVOTED fan of Terry Border--I will be entering this contest under a pseudonym and probably getting my clock cleaned by all you real writers out there!

  1. *considers making bad pun about 128 characters being too many people in one story*

Keep your comments succinct. Any comment that runs longer than 100 words is generally too long.

If you're commenting more than three times a day, it's too much.


Civility is enforced. Spelling/grammar mistakes may be pointed out ONLY in the blog post itself, not in any of the ensuing commenter's contributions.

If your comment doesn't show up, it's most likely that Blogger ate it. Try posting again using a GoogleID. (comment moderation is on only for older posts)
