Click the link above for information on my victory, below is the information about the event.

Thursday, March 1 (at OSU Urban Arts Space), Columbus Creative Cooperative and Paging Columbus proudly present the first annual Flash Fiction Smackdown! We need YOU to help us crown a champion.

Ten writers will wrestle with words in the first round, vying for your votes. After they each read for two minutes, the audience will select two finalists. Those finalists will go pen-to-pen in the last round by writing original pieces on the spot.

One writer will earn the title of 2012 Flash Fiction Smackdown Champion, and bask in the glory of our applause (and the glory of an Amazon gift card). Join us for an electrifying evening of competition, creativity, and conversation.

Note: For this event only, Paging Columbus will run from 6:30-9 PM, with the first round kicking off at 7 PM. There will be light refreshments and door prizes. Unfortunately, contestants will not be wearing spandex, masks, singlets, or capes. Most likely.
