The goal: write a complete novel in only 72 hours. The reward: a heck of a creative experience and one coffee-stained, tear-tinged, rule-breaking first draft. And for the winning author, publication. (Plus a 2nd Prize of $500 and a 3rd Prize of $100.) Since it's birth in 1977 it has become a notorious trial-by-deadline for writers everywhere. Labor Day weekend, Sept. 4-6, 2010. Entry fee.
