You may be familiar with the Bulwer-Lytton contest [1]. The "Lyttle
Lytton contest" [2], however, reimagines this for the age of twitter -
entries are limited to 200 characters.

The 2012 winners [3] are worth a read. I found it satisfying, in a way,
that "almost the entirety of _Twilight_" was quoted in <200 character
chunks as entries to this contest (recall that this is a contest for
atrociously *bad* writing...)
