2010 KILLERCON
Schedule/Events
The Erotic Horror Flash Fiction Contest Returns! Sponsored by Ravenous Romance!
In 2009 we were treated to some truly sensuous and terrifying works and Ms. Bailey Hunter walked away with the grand prize of $50! This year we are looking for even more thrills and chills. Arouse and horrify us with your tales of lust and mayhem!
Each contestant will have 3 minutes to read their work. Remember, this is not a Gross-out contest! We want romance and sensuality and genuine chills and terrors. Stories will be judged by our celebrity judges on style, originality, scariness, sexiness, and delivery. Winners will receive valuable prizes, including the first prize of $50 and publication with Ravenous Romance!
The contest will take place Saturday Night and will be immediately followed by a cocktail party in the hospitality suite.
So you think you can be creative?
Last year participants were given five words and a guiding sentence and tasked with writing a piece of flash fiction in less than 200 words. The results were amazing! This year we expect the same high quality fiction from our contestants.
Registrants will sign up, bring a sheet of paper and a pen, and will be told on the spot what the topic will be. Of course it will be horror-related, but that’s all the advance warning you get!
Writers are given fifteen minutes to create a piece of fiction on the given topic. These stories will then be read aloud before a panel of judges.
Valuable Prizes will be given including the $50 grand prize! Judges will be announced at the convention.
Questions? Shoot us an email at committee@killercon.org. Just don’t ask us what the topic will be!
