Hallo, this is the launch of The Gargle’s D’Ancey LaGuarde Tribute Literary Competition. I could have done a website page, but could I?

RULES:

You will write one chapter of a LaGuarde novel that hasn’t yet made it into this dimension. It must be a chapter of one of the books advertised on The Last Post or The Gargle as detailed here:

https://bugle.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_D%27Ancey_LaGuarde_novels

Submissions are due by 1 June, can’t be more than 10,000 words long or less than 1000 words long. Submit in PDF or Word Document. Illustrations or cover art also allowed.

Email submissions to literarygargle@gmail.com by 1 June. Winners will be announced by 1 July and will be judged by a panel of D’Ancey LaGuarde experts.

Prize: £200 in real human money plus a certificate of legitimacy signed by both Alice Fraser and D’Ancey LaGuarde.

As a condition of entry, you are granting the right for extracts of winning submissions or honourable mentions to be read out on The Gargle.

Photo shows the D'Ancey-style novel placed just above a book about My Flamingo... Coincidence? I think not...

Can we make multiple entries?

I do worry I am toeing the "doing well at bad writing" vs "doing poorly at bad writing and by that I mean actual bad writing" line rather perilously.

Also, Is "that's not my Flamingo, it's ____ is too ____" Up for speculation/"artistry"?

Well, I sent it. It is very bad. Or good? So bad it's good or so bad it's bad. Definitely remains to be seen!
