Mark Bellingham has written the beginning of a crime story; all you have to do is finish it. Details are here - please note the closing date is midnight 4th November 2011.
Two prizes: “Author’s Choice” prize and £1,000 to spend at hive.co.uk. PLUS the entry with the most public votes will win £250 of books.
Terms and conditions are on the website – along with some very good stories.
I’ve worked on this all day and am reasonably satisfied with the story. It’s not the sort of story I would have considered writing but having started, it was fun to write. It was a challenge trying to match the voice of the first bit of the story written by Mark Bellingham. While this wasn’t a condition of entry, it’s what I wanted to do, giving a funny yet dark story.
Amazing what can be done if one focuses!
