The Syracuse Post-Standard has published the beginning of a short story, written by Bruce Coville (of Bunnicula fame), and has asked its readers to finish it. Your blog assignment this week is to do just that. First, you'll need to read Coville's story starter at the link below:
www.syracuse.com/entertainment/index.ssf/2018/09/2018_bruce_coville_halloween_writing_contest_monster_bar.html Publish the ending to your short story here in the comments to this blog post for blog credit. Your ending needs to be at least 150 words. You should be sure to resolve the conflict in the story and have it fit Coville's writing style thus far as well. **Extra credit: If you submit your story ending to the actual contest via email and copy (CC) me on the email ([email protected]), I will give you a homework pass for a future blog post. You can use your JD email account or a personal account. See me if you're not sure how to do this. Here are the directions to submit via email: Include your name, address, age, grade and a phone number where you can be reached on your entry. You can submit an entry via email at [email protected]. Be sure to include CNY Halloween Contest in the subject line. The deadline is noon on Friday, October 12. Last year, Luke Cantone WON the contest! As promised to him last year, if you win the whole contest, I will excuse you from blog posts for the rest of the year. |
