Comedy writing contest


There's a writing contest over at Small-town Big-shot, for anyone interested in writing some comedy.

The brief is as follows:

Deadline:
September 1st, 2007 (May be extended)
Voting will begin 1 day after deadline.


Challenge:
Write a comedy story involving at least 2 out of the following:
exorcism
mermaid
angry mob
black box
banjo


Rules:
Story must be at least 750 words (no maximum)
Stories must be your own original work
You must actively use at least 2 of the items listed
Try to keep it somewhat appropriate for the site
It will be judged only on humor and creativity
You may submit as many entries as you like.


Sounds like it could be fun - only if you're anything like me you'll find it easier to write comedy when you're not trying - and impossible to write it when you are trying. Bugger.
