Introducing Write1Sub1: A Story A Week in 2011 ...

Funny how things work out, how one thing can lead to another ...

This post over at Milo James Fowler's in medias res blog started out about something else completely. Then, half way down the comments, the idea of emulating Ray Bradbury and writing/submitting a story a week cropped up. It suddenly seemed obvious that it had to be : a NaNoWriMo-style scheme, but lasting for a whole year. The challenge being to write a story and submit a story (perhaps the same story) each week for a year. 52 stories : short fiction, flash fiction or Twitter fiction.

Is it crazy? Is it genius? Is it even possible? Who knows? Only one way to find out. And so Write1Sub1 has been created. The official start date is 1/1/11 so this is just an early warning. If you're deep into NaNoWriMo it's probably the last thing you want to hear about. But if you want to find out more, or even sign up, there's the beginnings of a blog at write1sub1.blogspot.com explaining it all. It should be a lot of fun ...

Oh, and hopefully soon we'll have a proper logo you can add to your blog etc. Our first effort is above - if anyone is able to create a better one we'd love to use it!
