Anyone out there a fan of the Bulwer- Lytton Contest?

It's at San Jose State College every year. It's a literary contest judged by the English Dept.

The contest is to see who can write the opening line of the worst novel ever written. There are various categories, like Romance, Murder Mystery, Thriller etc.

I have laughed so hard at the entries they post online that I've gotten muscle strain in my ribcage.

They are often funnier than heck.
I loved that, I've even submitted entries over the years.

So have I...but they just weren't bad enough, I guess...
