Concise Critical Capsule Captures Crown


Kenny Brechner - November 5, 2014

It is time to announce both the winner, and to reveal the regal grand prize, of the Compelling Contest which ran here on October 23rd  challenging the alliterative acumen of its amiable antagonists.
There were some terrific entries here, but one of them stood out: Karin Thogerson’s recap for The Fault In Our Stars.
Cancer couple courtship culminates in cryfest.
The two runners up were Kate Braasch’s Don’t Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus! entry:
Public plug prohibits pigeon piloting public pick-upper. Premeditating and pesky pigeon persists and petitions piloting. Pensive pigeon’s prayer precluded; possible portage post? Parable pleases people and pigeons proportionately.
And Margaret’s Blueberries for Sal entry:
Moms and moppets maneuver Maine mountain, making menu of mazarine morsels. Mischievous mayhem materializes: moppets misplaced! Maternal mistrust materializes — maybe a monster! Mercifully, mutatis mutandis, mistakes are mitigated.
And what of the regal reward? Karin will receive the amazing new giant morphing wind-up dinosaur car, modeled by DDG’s own Karin Schott! Drum roll please…
grandprize
Thanks to everyone who entered!
