Friday Contest #5

Great quotes from literature…the rough draft

I’ll give you the winner for last week’s contest in a moment, but first here is this week’s challenge:

Take a famous line from a novel…and give us the rough draft. Here’s an example:
“Call me Buzzy.” [Moby-Dick]

Winner gets all 14 Bystanders, or something equally splendiferous.

The winner for Friday Contest #4 is…Jed Resnik! Jed, email me and we’ll begin the nuanced and rewarding prizing process.

You guys do NOT make this easy. I may have to switch to some kind of vox-pop/polling mechanism. It is, after all, the Age of Populism. Or something.

One last bit of housekeeping: as with all Bystander projects, we pay our contributors. Quarantine Cavalcade has been so massively popular, we’ve run much more stuff than I expected. So I’ve established a new $1 subscription level at our Patreon, for people to help us defray the cost of this ever-growing wodge of timely humor. This will allow us to keep doing web-based, freely available projects without wrecking the budget of the mag.

PLEASE NOTE: If you’ve already subscribed to the mag, you’re good. Thanks to everybody for considering it!
