Go to Daniel Wallace's Fan Page Sniplits author Robert Friedman recently learned that he's won the highly competitive Science Fiction category of the 2009 Bulwer-Lytton Fiction Contest. We'd like to tell you how proud we are and how we always knew he had it in him, but, well, you see it's... Actually, I guess we're not at all surprised that Bob turned his wicked good sense of humor into a winning entry for this well known celebration of bad writing. This is the 27th year that the English Department at San Jose University, has sponsored the whimsical contest inviting writers to submit opening sentences for the WORST novel they can possibly imagine. The contest is named for the author forever linked, via his cartoon protege Snoopy, to the opening: It was a dark and stormy night;..." (Ah, if only Edward George Bulwer-Lytton had actually stopped there, but, he went on.) "... the rain fell in torrents - except at occasional intervals, when it was checked by a violent gust of wind which swept up the streets (for it is in London that our scene lies), rattling along the housetops, and fiercely agitating the scanty flame of the lamps that struggled against the darkness. Robert's "winning" entry: The golden, starry wonders of the dark universe unfurled before the brave interstellar vessel "Argus" like a black flag of victory with a whole bunch of holes in it as the mysterious mission buoyantly commenced that would one day resolve critical questions about space, time, and the appropriate ratio of nuts to chips in a perfect chocolate chip cookie. |
