Apocalypse Cow

Name Your TaleNick over at Name Your Tale asked me to guest pen one of their stories. In case you haven’t ever been to the site, it’s kind of a neat idea. Anyone can submit a title idea, and then the busy scribblers at NYT pen a 100-word masterpiece to fit it.

Every tale has to be exactly 100 words, including Apocalypse Cow.

Alltop and humor-blogs.com are also catastrophic cattle.

    That was brilliant!

    The website’s pretty cool, too. Now I’m doomed to spending time thinking up catchy titles instead of my regularly scheduled procrastination activities.

    Thanks Alenja — yeah, it’s a fun site, and probably great practice for the regular writers. (Many writers struggle with titles, so it is nice to have one provided.)

    What a cool idea. Seriously (I even gave the site a link).

    I tend to be really verbose; cramming everything into 100 words must be a great discipline to practice …
