Hey, remember Dude Write? That was a trick question – of course you remember Dude Write. I write about them every other post. In fact, I mention Dude Write so often in my posts that I’m probably stealing Google search rankings from them. Take that, suckers!
What you may also remember is that they’ve been running a flash fiction contest on a monthly basis. This motivated me to write lots of flash fiction stories. OK, by “lots” I mean “exactly four”, but there’s really no need to be an ass about it!
What you probably don’t remember is that, due to relatively low turnout, DudeWrite’s flash fiction contest was “on hold” during November. In fact, it was on the verge of being cancelled altogether. I cried. I pleaded with Dude Write to not let it die. I cried some more, because I’m emotionally unstable and have poor impulse control.
Whatever, at least I’m man enough to admit it!
Then, last week, something wonderful happened. We had our first snow of the winter in Denmark! Snow is great – you can build snowmen, go skiing, have snowball fi…wait a second, this isn’t what I was going to write about. What I was going to say is that last week I was contacted by Scott Jung from Dude Write with a very special offer…an offer I couldn’t possibly refuse.
To make a long story short – you are now looking at Dude Write’s new “Special Editor for Flash Fiction”. That is, if you’re looking at that A4 picture of me you have by your computer screen (yeah…I know!). Otherwise you’re just reading about Dude Write’s new special editor.
The guys were even nice enough to officially introduce me today. So thanks guys, and…aaaahm…I’m sorry about that whole “Take that, suckers!” thing – it was totally taken out of context.
Looking forward to joining the existing dynamic trio of Dude Write editors and having lots of upscale rave parties, caviar fights and limo drag racing. That’s what being an editor means, right? Please tell me that’s what it means!

Congratuations! You must be very special indeed, to be chosen for this. Very exciting for you.
Thanks, yeah definitely looking forward to helping out what I consider a cool initiative!
Cool! I knew there was more to your skills than upsetting poor, unsuspecting spammers from Zimbabwe. Way to go!
You’re right, I also upset spammers in US, China and Uruguay…I don’t discriminate
Thanks, it’s exciting!
Awesome! Congrats.
Thanks dude, looking forward to resurrecting the flash!
First rule of Dude Write Special Editor for Flash Fiction is never talk about the caviar fights…lol.

Oh man, in that case – boy, did you pick the wrong guy for this job. I’m all about caviar fights!
Well Mr.Special congratulations!May you go on to fortune and fame or at least winning your fair share of caviar and limo drag races.
Why thank you, I am looking forward to driving limos powered by caviar!
That could prove quite expensive, but it is better than eating the stuff!
What happened to your response, Mr. Nest? Showed up on my blog? Caviar powered limo could be quite expensive, but it is better than eating the stuff!
Hey, it just showed up! Now I look crazy, but what else is new?
Ha, looks like I’m not the only special person here
And well, if you own a limo, you may as well fuel with caviar, because at that stage – why the hell not?
Many times my mother would say to me Rachael you are special, ED! Could never figure out who ED was?
I think she must’ve been referring to your second personality – “Ed”. Meaning both you AND Ed were special. No?
I think you must be right! Wow! I’m must have buried Ed in my subconscious somewhere!
Congrats! Sounds like a challenging but fun gig! Good for you…
Will be fun for sure, looking forward to it! And what kind of sorcery is this – you were commenting on my blog at the same second I was commenting on yours…have you hacked my webcam and are now stalking me? Was that A4 picture not enough for you?!
Ha! I was thinking the very same thing mister! lol
Congrats! Always good to have a new title, and they found the perfect guy for the job.
Thanks! Perfect guy for the job? If it involves rave parties and caviar fights – for sure! Else…well let’s wait and see
