The winners of one of my favourite contests have just been announced. The results of the Bulwer-Lytton Fiction Contest are in, and its a good crop this year. I liked the 1st runner up best, as it sums up how I feel about bad fantasy writing. (I do love good fantasy - eg, Tolkein, Robert Jordan -well the first 7 books anyway, but that's another conversation.) The premise is that each contestant has to create the worst opening sentence for a non-existent novel. Its good fun!
