This is the first in a series of contests I am going to run if this first is successful.
I want you to give me the life of this object.
Tell me where it has been, what sort of life it has lived, the people it met.
Brevity and creativity are the keys.
I will put a limit of 10 lines on this but so you are aware if someone writes something 40 words long and it is perfection it will win over something 10 lines long. I don't have a great attention span
Please do not bitch and moan at the judge or other contestants. If you can't play nice then don't play at all.
Pull out all creative stops on this one. I see a lot of life in this picture.
Please CREDIT THE ARTIST in your author notes or you will be DQ's without warning or explanation.
