writing for the dream king

At the end of this month, Fully Booked will launch a very interesting writing contest: Neil Gaiman has pledged $15,000 as top prize.

So what's the skinny?

Two categories: 0ne - graphic novel; two - prose scifi/fantasy.

Imagine that. Comics and speculative fiction. Can you tell how stunned I am that this dovetails into my areas of interest/agendas?

Clearly, this is worth writing (and fighting) for.

Details to follow, but do spread the word and get started early.
