November 15, 2004 | It's about quantity, not quality
This month at Absolute Blank, TC Editor Erin L. Nappe (Billiard) writes about participating in National Novel Writing Month ... Hey, wait a minute! Shouldn't she be working on her NaNovel? Shh, if you don't tell, we won't. Keep on typing, Erin!

November 01, 2004 | 4th annual Dead of Winter Contest!
It's our Fourth Annual "Dead of Winter" short story contest!
"Dead of Winter" is a contest for stories with supernatural elements or themes. Ideally, stories should be set in autumn or winter. The most original, most haunting stories will be chosen for publication.
Stories submitted to this year's "Dead of Winter" contest should follow the theme: "the house at the end of the road."
Word limit is 3500 words.
The contest opens today, November 1, 2004 and the deadline for submission is December 21, 2004. For more details and information (where to submit, formatting your entry, prizes, etc.), visit our contest page. Any questions? Post them or e-mail the editors.
If you post anything related to your entry for feedback, please include "DOW" (or some other notation indicating it's for the contest) in the post title so that the judges don't read the post.
Good luck and have fun!
