Mark Twain Writing Contest

twain_markEver wanted to write the Great American Novel, but just couldn’t get started?  Let one of the greats, Mark Twain, help you out.

To promote the new book, Who Is Mark Twain? by the man himself, Borders and the publisher, Harper Studios, are having a contest.  Write the ending to one of the unfinished pieces in the book (found online, see link below) by May 31st, and win fame and fortune!  Well, maybe not fortune, but they will publish your work on Borders.com and sponsor a reading of your work at your local Borders.

The winner also gets a free copy of the book, as do ten honorable mentions.

So, sorry, guys, no cash prizes.  But how cool would it be to put on your résumé or CV that you’ve collaborated with Mark Twain?

Find out all the gloriously orange details of the Mark Twain contest.
