Dialogues of 500 words or less.

Welcome to the Dialogue 500!

This contest uses only spoken words or internal dialogue!

(Please, none of that he/she said with lengthy "background"-- just dialogue! Hence the name! Write like people speak. Use contractions. Flavor with accents. Branch out. When writing dialogue, anything goes. Throw out all the rules of grammar you've been brainwashed with, write like people talk! )

The Rules-- read'em, love'em, live'em!

one entry per person!

Post here with a bitem link in a new forum post. {bitem:itemnumber} (where "itemnumber" is the item number of the Static Item you are entering.)

Your Static Item needs to be a Short Story, 500 words or less, and must consist of only dialogue.

Remember: it needs to be a story, with a plot, not a vignette.

Donations to this contest can be sent to me.
