Title: Name Your Tale: 100 word stories
Post by: Talia on June 12, 2009, 02:11:20 PM

Someone just linked me to this site and I thought it was pretty rad:

the reason I posted it here is I was curious if anyone would care to get involved in such a project on these boards. It could be fun.

There's also 100 Word Stories (http://podcasting.isfullofcrap.com/).  About 75%, maybe more, are crap.  There have been a few gems, but I bet members here could do better.

Which means 25%, not so bad. Doing the math... that's over 300, I'd say.

What a nice thing to say. Thank you.

Another site to look at is http://100wordstories.com/ - used to be 100 Words Or Les Nessman.

Okay, here's my suggestion for how to do this:

A one week submission period, followed by a one week poll to determine a winner, the winner gets bragging rights and chooses the title for the next contest.  Sound good? 

Talia, since this was your idea, you should choose the first title and post the poll, if you want to.
