To welcome in the holiday season, we are running a competition themed with light-hearted fun in mind.
Hijinks are examples of mischief or merrymaking that are often disruptive or rowdy. They are activities that are fun: getting into trouble, but not serious trouble.
Phrases often associated with hijinks, are: high energy, wildness, carefree antics, uninhibited mischief, unrestrained fun.
Competition Theme
Stories should contain some element relating to the Xmas / New Year holidays.
Perhaps an Office Xmas party gets a bit out of hand for several (or more) of the staff? A booked last minute ski resort wasn't exactly what a straight-laced couple had envisaged, when they discover it's a resort for swingers... A husband gets a few wishes on his Xmas sexual wishlist fulfilled? 2 strangers wake up naked and worse for wear on New Year's Day, wondering how they ended up in a locked Department store...
We are looking for short, punchy, entertaining stories. As such, the word limit is a scroogelike 2000 words for this competition.
Winner: $150
Second Place: $100
Third Place: $50
