Anyway, March at The Pygmy Giant brings with it a little spring challenge… Members of the Facebook group have kindly provided us with a selection of nouns, verbs and adjectives, without really knowing what they were signing up for. So here’s the challenge – you have until 31st March to craft and send us a very short story of 250 words or fewer (!) which contains the all of the following words:
Trouble
Marmot (look it up)
Throttle
Snorkelling
Understated
Shiny
Any genre will do. Putting the words in the title doesn’t count! Send all your submissions to thepygmygiant@gmail.com and if there are a lot of good entries we’ll put them all up on the page.
The one deemed the best by an uneducated mystery panel of judges will win a PRIZE worth perhaps as much as Five English Pounds. Yes, it’s true. And you’ll find out who won on April 1st. No foolin’. Go to it!
