Tonight’s the night!

At 6:30 p.m. the writers(well, many of them) will gather at the Leaf & Bean in down­town Boze­man to read their ter­ri­ble, won­der­ful work!

Hope to see you there!

If you act(and by act, I mean write) quickly your short, short story could be read aloud on National Pub­lic Radio. If noth­ing else it looks like a fun exer­cise to try. The dead­line is Feb­ru­ary 28th and the details can be found HERE.

2009’s Chief Offi­cer of Fools, Ray Siko­rski, abandoned(yes, aban­doned!!) Fool­ish Words for adven­ture in far away lands, so I’m head­ing up the silly marathon this year!

What is Fool­ish Words? Fool­ish Words is an add-on story cre­ated by writ­ers in and around Boze­man each year. Each writer adds his or her 200–400 words to the story and when April Fool’s Day rolls around we all get together and read aloud our con­tri­bu­tions to this unholy doc­u­ment of pure foolishness.

Quite a lot of fun, I must say!

If you’d like to check out what 2009’s fools pro­duced, it’s all online at http://www.foolish.creativenudge.org/

Now, I’m run­ning a bit late get­ting this started, so please let me know ASAP at susan@creativenudge.org if you’d like to be involved. Also let me know if there is a cer­tain time over the next two months that would be either really bad or really great for you to write your piece.

Thanks! And away we go!!!
