This coming weekend, there will be posted at Toasted Cheese a prompt for the quarterly writing contest. Winners get fabulous prizes like handmade crockery, Amazon gift certificates, and publication in the Toasted Cheese ezine.

Rules are here, and the prompt and word limit will be posted in the forum "Just the Place for a Snark" at 5pm Eastern US time (21:00 GMT) on Friday. You'll have 48 hours to write and submit a story.

Sharpen your pencilsword processors, and put on your thinking caps! Consider this a warm-up for the Seventh Husi Writing Fun Challenge, which will be forthcoming once I'm done hosting this one.
