"Murder at the
Mustard Museum" - A Mystery Writing Contest -
It’s the ultimate condiment whodunit and it’s
your chance to win $5,000 in the Mount Horeb Mustard Museum’s
Mustard Mystery Contest. This is the contest’s home page and
within a few weeks you can find all the details of this
exciting new contest.
The contest will be open to all U.S. citizens
with a special “Young Writers” division for aspiring novelists
of high school age and under. All you have to do is read
Chapter One of Murder at the Mustard Museum (which will appear
here on October 1, 2005) and write the best Chapter Two plus a
short summary of how it all turns it.
Complete rules are
posted here for downloading . . . in plenty of time
for all you would-be Agatha Mustards to sharpen your pencils,
pour the tea, and get your creative juices flowing.
There is no entry fee, only a few hours of
your best work. No purchase is necessary, although no one will
mind if you show your appreciation by buying something from
the Mount Horeb Mustard Museum.
So was it Colonel M----- in the lavatory with
a plunger?
