Short Story Competition

Hi All,

We are looking for short story writers to be featured in a new iPhone Application.

It's a great way to be noticed and if the app makes money we ALL make money.

Visit http://www.288vroom.com/index.php?p=1_4_Authors for details.

Cheers!
Gregg

This looks interesting, but would someone really read 20,000 words on a little iPod? Maybe you'll get more shorter stories. It says you can use the stories on websites or wherever also, but is this only AFTER y'all publish them, or can someone send previously published stories?

Oh, and you might want to go to the Introduce Yourself section and post an introduction so people don't think you are spamming the board!

Hi Angel,

You're right I probably should introduce myself.

I am also a writer. I've been writing short stories my whole life and I am currently working on 2 novels. One of the novels is a ghost story of sorts and the other, well, that one is still top secret

As far as submitting goes, you can submit stories that have been previously published as long as they weren't published in an iPhone app and you can continue to do so at anytime (again, I just ask they aren't published again in an iPhone app). I hope that clears things up.

I know that my post does in some ways seem like spam, but I assure you that my intentions are true.

One more thing....could a "robot" write that? Hmm, sounds like a good idea for a story

Long as you participate in the forum for things other than promoting your site, you should be ok.

Intelesting...veddy veddy intelesting...

Thanks for the word, I may look into this!

I seemed to be looking down from an immense height upon a twilit grotto, knee-deep with filth, where a white-bearded daemon swineherd drove about with his staff a flock of fungous, flabby beasts whose appearance filled me with unutterable loathing.
