Would anyone be interested in mini comps?

Hi, I am pretty new here but think its a great opportunity for writers to share their work. My question is whether anyone would like to take part in mini writing competitions to be run monthly and just for fun? I am trying to set this up on my blog and the idea would be for people to submit their own prose/poems up to a 500 word limit with visitors then voting for their favourite and the winner each month setting the next month's theme, beginning or ending etc. Envisage a bit of trial and error but thought I'd put it out there....

Thanks

Hi Damien, I'm sure you do yourself a disservice but again thanks for the reply. I just started dabbling in poetry myself last year so am by no means greatly proficient! It doesn't have to be just poetry though as the word limit also lends itself to flash fiction or extracts from larger stories. Maybe it will work, maybe not but thought it could be fun...

Thanks Victoria and I appreciate you replying to this. Just thought I'd try it so will see how it goes. What novels do you write?
