V-Day-Writing Challenge

Heart We thought it would be fun to do a writing challenge around Valentine's Day. Here it is: Write a Hallmark-esque Valentine's Day card using some offbeat words, the top three submissions (decided by the WEbook editorial staff) will be posted on the blog next Friday. The winners get a coupon code to enter PageToFame for free!
 
Write a Valentine's Day note (max 200 words) to a loved one, real or imaginary. It can take any form (Shakespearean sonnets are always welcome) but creativity is the most important thing. To give the letters some extra love-spice, each one must contain at least five of the following nouns, used in a creative and romantic fashion. They are:


Seven-11
scurvy
turnpike
flannel
Kilimanjaro
blizzard
applesauce
Tang
water buffalo
hand-sanitizer

To submit, simply join our project here, and start a new chapter. We will announce the winner next Friday (February 12th), so get writing!
