Holiday Writing Contest

After my earlier post about seeing dolphin Christmas decorations, I realized a couple of things. (1) The Christmas dolphin needs a name, and (2) it needs a good story.

A name, I can come up with. I've settled on Boto, the Christmas Dolphin. A story on the other hand...that takes a little more effort. Rather than exerting all that effort myself, I thought perhaps I would turn to the resources that provided such good fiction in the past. That's right, I'm asking all of you to give me a story for Boto the Christmas Dolphin. The contest will work much like the one held last year: You send me your stories here. I will post them and then ask everyone to vote for them.

For more information, check out this site.

Assuming we get plenty of entries, this should be lots of fun. If I don't get enough entries...well, I'll never speak to you again.

By the way, bonus points for anyone who knows where the dolphin's name came from.

Update: Ok, since I didn't nag all of you enough and I didn't get many entries, I'm making this a sticky entry and extending the deadline until Friday December 15th. That's an extra week. Please don't make me decide that I hate you all.
