Weird Tales FF contest

If anyone is interested, Weird Tales is holding a Flash Fiction contest, through August 4th.

You’ve seen the latest wave of spam — you know, the faux outrageous news headlines: “Osama trains goats for tactical bombing.” “Laika the Russian space dog returns to Earth.” “Children admit to being little shits: Video.” Isn’t it a shame the headline is all we get? So here at Weird Tales we’re inviting YOU to turn this spam into… um… spam-ade!

Details can be found here. If you need some inspiration, I've posted a list of 11k spam subjects on my blog.

Oh, thank YOU! My spam filter is pretty darn good, so I don't get any interesting stuff I could use in my own inbox.

My pleasure. I'm anal retentive, and so are a few of my friends. Not only do we filter our spam, we archive it for future use. Cuz, you never know when it may come in handy.

Oh, Lordy. Some of those are priceless!

This one's going to be fun.

That's really interesting.

I didn't even know Weird Tales was still in business.
