Terrible Writing Contest

That's right -- where writers compete to see who can write the most terrible first sentence of a novel. The winner? A lady by the name of Molly Ringle. The sentence?

"For the first month of Ricardo and Felicity's affair, they greeted one another at every stolen rendezvous with a kiss--a lengthy, ravenous kiss, Ricardo lapping and sucking at Felicity's mouth as if she were a giant cage-mounted water bottle and he were the world's thirstiest gerbil."

Wow.

Read a very short article about the contest here.
