  • 2008 Bulwer-Lytton fiction contest winners

    The winners, runner-ups and "dishonorable mentions" can be found here; always good for laughs and more than a few groans.

    I'd never heard about this contest. This one is brilliant:

    Theirs was a New York love, a checkered taxi ride burning rubber, and like the city their passion was open 24/7, steam rising from their bodies like slick streets exhaling warm, moist, white breath through manhole covers stamped "Forged by DeLaney Bros., Piscataway, N.J."

    Gotta love that bit about the manhole cover stamp.

      Oh, you gotta investigate past winners, then; it's been going since 1982.
