THEY'RE PEOPLE TOO-Blogfest

(Word Painting Blogfest entry see below!)

So my dearies, it is today my pride and pleasure to present to you the....

It has been brought to my attention that for recent blogfest entries I've foregone the normal thematic interpretation in favour of a personification of the theme. I wrote about A Day in the life of Death and let the Weather God complain.

So I thought I'd make a blogfest out of it and let you try, too. For this blogfest, this is what I want you to do:

• pick a more or less abstract concept... hate, love, weather, clouds,  death, life, anything you can think of
• write a monologue/dialogue/scene featuring said personified concept as the MC
• do so using somewhere in the region of 500 words - this is supposed to be a challenge, right?
• sign up on the linky list below by Oct 2nd at the latest
• post your monologue/dialogue/scene on Oct 2nd and provide a link back to this post so people can have a look at the other entries, too
• Read entries and leave comments (generally, the more you comment, the more comments you will receive, so this is fairly self-serving)
• *EDIT* obviously I'd like you to follow me, too, but if you don't want to be friends, so be it! *sob*

That's it! 

Oh wait. No it isn't. 

There's also a PRIZE!!! This here book is up for grabs:

• Blog about it in a post (5 entries)
• Advertise some other way (potentially 1 entry per ad, you have to tell me about it in comments, though, so I can check it out) (I'm thinking Facebook here)
