I know several of you have mentioned that it may not yet be winter where you are. However this morning there was frost of the inside of my window and I have the flu. This means that it is officially winter for me ^_^
And so, what does The Literati Winter Festival consist of then? Everything!
Starting today is our next big contest
The Literati Musical
This was an idea that several of you came out with, the idea of using music as inspiration to create a new piece of literature. So here is your chance
How to Enter
Note *
The-Literati with your intention to take part.

I will note you back with
a song that you are to use in your entry, (those are the two you must use.)

Be sure to mention both this contest
and the song you were assigned.

Send me a note with a link to your piece when you have posted it with the title
The Literati Musical.

Open for any Literati member to enter.
Rules
You may only use the song that you have been assigned. Its super easy to write a piece based around a song you know and love. A new song will give you a chance to explore new terrain and all that ^_^

It can be poetry
or prose The Literati do not discriminate!

The contest will end on
November 1st 2008 at midnight.JudgingJudges -



Fate will be judging for how well the song is integrated lyrically, and I will be judging how the mood, tone and style of the song is used.

Of course we also want pieces of the highest literary quality, nothing short of the best ^_^
PrizesThere will be more prizes added in the future, for more information check here [link]

Competitions, advice, critiques and tips on how to beat the Block!!
The artist of the song has already done that with his piece and projecting another's words onto
that which has already been created seems simply inane.
Now if you assign to me a song from Creative Commons or with artist permission and I can show you what can be done with it both audio and visually-as its what I do.

It's taking what's already said and expanding on it thoughtfully, not just tacking something onto it carelessly.

You are absolutely right. Writing has such wide capabilities. If you can't draw something, you can more than likely let someone know what you mean by writing about it and inspired stories are of no exception.
Personally, I love working with music as a medium in my writing. It gives me something to base a story OFF of instead of trying to think of something on my own.
