Byline Madness – The hunt to find the best of the best clichés
Create a sentence of no more than 50 words containing as many breathless journalistic clichés as you can manage.
Top marks for creativity, extra marks for using a cliché not yet covered in Cliché of the Week. Even better if the sentence makes some sort of sense.
How: Either post your submission on the wall of the Cliché of the Week Facebook group, as a comment at this post or email me at chris@thelastwhale.com.au. Mark your submission "Byline Madness".
The incentive: Apart from the enormous prestige of being the inaugural Byline Madness laureate (chosen absolutely subjectively), the good people at that fine publisher Fremantle Press will send a package of books including The Waterboys by Peter Docker, My Dog Gave Me the Clap by Adam Morris, Brothers by Antonio Buti and, perhaps, one of the few remaining copies of The Last Whale by Chris Pash.
Submissions close 18 November 2011
