Pac-Man moleskine giveaway
I’m giving away a limited edition Moleskine commemorating Pac-Man’s 30th anniversary.
The person who’ll claim this 240-page ruled 13x21cm notebook will submit 400 words titled “High Score” to saaleha(at)gmail(dot)com before midnight (ZA time) on December 31st, 2010 January 15th, 2011.
Your entry could be poetry, prose or any sort of experimental text play; the interpretation is wide open.
The winning submission gets the notebook, and if there are enough of them; a selection of the best entries will be compiled into an e-book that will be made available for download.
Insert coin.
See what I've pinned
[...] As our circle tends to draw close and tight, it was important for no names to be attached to any of the submissions. The resulting scores were based purely on technical skill and an imaginative interpretation of the brief. [...]
50 word leeway? dang nabbit. I went way overboard. poot. Do i need to edit?
No worries. I’m easy like that.

You have a 50-word leeway either way.
Wat are those ‘dots’ pacman eats ?
They’re his psych meds. When he doesn’t take them in time, the ghosts get him.
It’s a pretty good giveaway, however I possess no talent in the language department.
I’ll forward this to those who have a poetical bone in their body
I look forward to reading your entry then DL
Alas…I didn’t even make an attempt. Nothing came to mind; and then it was holidays…
I’ve extended the deadline to January 15th.
I shan’t be entering though, as nothing comes to mind. I do like the idea of a writing challenge, though. So perhaps you can put a few more up this year.
I don’t use moleskins – but I want that one
