At our Forum we have many contests. Sometimes the contests are
open to the general public, sometimes not. Regardless, Liquid
Imagination publishes the winning stories, poems and screenplays,
enthusiastically endorsing the winners while attempting to enhance
their work with art. Or does their work enhance the art?
To celebrate Chrissy Davis' new book "Raven's Brew," we had a contest at our
private office. Chrissy, as I'm sure you know, is Liquid Imagination's Poetry
Editor. To say we were excited is an understatement. The contest further stoked
the fires of excitement, and we had a story contest and poetry contest. Sue
Babcock won the Raven's Brew Story Contest with her fiction "Raven and Coyote."
John C. Mannone won the Raven's Brew Poetry Contest with his masterpiece
"Raven-Black Dreams." All the entries were FANTASTIC, but there can be only one.
Lets read the winners:
Uh... our sponsor, Thorg, has a little something to say:

Humans. You write fairies. You write unicorns. We trolls like unicorns, too (they
taste good roasted over a spit and seasoned with fairy dust). But what about
trolls? How come you'ze never write us trolls? Ugh. Piss off bad. Angry. See
red. Now you write good, or Thorg eat you.
Within my private web office of 260 writers, editors, artists, poets and crazy
mayhem came a challenge from Thorg himself. Actually, he sent the challenge to
LP Langdon's office, too. And we thought, No way! I mean, seriously. Trolls?
But then Thorg can be quite persuasive. And he has a big club and mean temper.
So, without further ado, let me invite EVERYONE into my private office (before
Thorg eats me) to participate in the TROLL CONTEST.
Rules? Trolls don't have rules, haven't you heard?
Well, there are a few rules.
No. 1) You must join Francis Ford Coppola's American Zoetrope. It's a free website
for writers, directors, screenplay writers, actors, artists, poets and editors. Thorg
has been known to visit with his brutal critiques, his points made with the blunt
truth of the his club.
No. 2) You must join my private web office of over 260 writers, editors, artists,
poets and script writers. It's called Liquid Imagination.
No. 3) You must submit your story in my office. Come and play. With Thorg. He
likes humans... a LOT!!
Deadline? Trolls don't have deadlines. Nor can they tell time. But Thorg said the
winners would be picked sometime in when the days begin to grow longer and the
snow begins to melt, so we assume March or April.
If you got what it takes, your troll stories/poetry will appear in Liquid Imagination.
We are picking the three best Troll Stories and the three best Troll Poems.
Come join American Zoetrope now!! It is the BEST thing a poet or writer can do! Trust me! And then when you're at American Zoetrope, look up Liquid Imagination! Thank you VERY much, Mr. Francis Ford Coppola for American Zoetrope!!!
