Hi ho boys and girls! It's your old pal Petenort here for a super special delivery! It's a brand new month, which means it's time for a shiny new Contest! Dearest me, I wonder what it will be- *looks at thread title* Oh right.
Now you might be asking yourself, "Pete, buddy, what the *HONK* is a Blurb?" Well that's simple my foul mouthed little friend, by MY definition a "Blurb" is a 90 word story. You read right, 90 words-no more. For this month's contest, I want you guys to submit your own 90 word stories to me. Need an example? Well here you go:
There you are, exactly 90 words or somethin'. Nothing to it. The contest is to make stories of similar lengths with the one of highest quality being the winner! Alright now, here are the rules!
1) Blurbs can have no more than 90 words. Under 90 is alright though we would prefer if you reached 40 words as a minimum.
2) Your blurb is to be about a character you currently possess. You may make one blurb for each character you play. Only one per person shall place though.
3) All normal forum content rules apply to the blurbs.
4) Remember that it's alllllll for fun. Though the prize doesn't hurt.
That's right, winner gets a prize (as well as those who take second and third place) Let's see here.
1st Place: 200 Munny!
2nd Place: 150 Munny!
3rd Place: 100 Munny!
Submission time will end on the 24th of March so that judging may take place. Well that's all you will need to know. Just post with the code below and remember to have oodles of fun! Good luck, and God speed!
BLURB CONTEST!

{Spoiler}"In retrospect, aggravating a gaggle of geese with his shouting might have not been the smartest thing for Pete to do. He watched in horror as the angry swarm swooped his way. Their collective honk battle cry echoed through his ears as he jumped down and took a defensive ball-like-stance. He winced as the large malicious fowls zoomed by overhead; each passing form delivering a sharp burst of wind to his back. Then suddenly the wind ceased. When Pete looked up the Geese were gone. For now, he was safe."
