The Worst of the Holidays

`WineWriter:iconWineWriter: reports, November 25, 2007
:holly:The Worst of the Holidays:holly:

The holidays are about appreciation, good will, and kindness. But the holidays just aren’t the same, old fashioned, presents-around-the-tree time. This contest will be held in honor of all the money-grabbing scrooges of the holidays, and how we manage to salvage the spirit of the holiday regardless.

We understand: bah, humbug and all that. What can we do?

We challenge you to write prose piece or a poem about the worst part of the holiday season, whether that be commercialization, that line you had to stand in for an hour, or the seven-hour drive through sleet and snow to visit your least favorite aunt. Meanwhile, and here’s the fun part, remember the holiday spirit. Happy and sentimental endings get extra brownie points.

What are the rules?

:bulletgreen: All submissions should be written for this contest, from the first draft of you masterpiece, to the last one
:bulletgreen: One submission per person
:bulletgreen: A link to the news article or to my contest journal should be added to the description of your entry
:bulletgreen: Deviation should avoid all those iffy things that make judges' brains implode

** Decisions regarding word count and subject propriety are left to the writer

I am still a little bit confused. Does it have to be in the style of a poem or can it be like a story?

It can be either a poem or a story. Or a play, even. Be creative with it :)
