The Orwell Prize 2009: Special Prize for Blogs

I almost didn't enter or plug this competition because of the money they put in Staines' pocket via a MessageSpace ad, but I figured it'd be a pretty poor competition without any real art... and I know of several people 'round our way who make good art with the words and like that.

So (a) I've entered, and (b) here is the plug, so you can consider entering yourself:

The Orwell Prize - SPECIAL PRIZE for blogs
Running alongside the Book Prize and Journalism Prize this year, submissions... close on 14th January 2009, for all work published for the first time in the calendar year 2008... The Orwell Prize rewards those who achieve George Orwell's ambition 'to make political writing into an art'. Entries should therefore be of equal excellence in style and content.

So, fellow bloggers, you have until next Wednesday to browse through your archives and come up with 10 entries that best indicate how jolly talented and clever you are.

Don't be shy, now.
