Random thoughts about writing and books that cross my mind when my fingers aren't crossing the keys. (For young readers and aspiring young writers)
1. MAY THIS PICTURE BE WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS (OR AT LEAST 750)


As many of you know, I love using The Mysteries of Harris Burdick as a prop to promote creative writing.  The drawings in that book are so evocative, anyone can think of a good story to accompany them.

Well now, Writer's Digest is running a contest based on a similar theory. They provide the picture (featured here on the right). You provide the story.  (750 words or less)

Deadline:  December 10, 2010
Prize:  Publication in Writer's Digest


So go ahead.  Give the picture here a good look.  Let your mind go and your fingers begin to type.  You have no idea where this open door may lead you!
