Blizzard commence writing contest
News - Win nice things by writing about games
Blizzard have this weekend begun a new fan contest, challenging aficionados to write a story up to 10,000 words in length, based on one of the developer's three big franchises.
The gamer who pens the best yarn, elaborating on one of the firm's big IPs, will win a visit to the studio's headquarters in California.
"Whether you conjure stories in your free time or write for a living, you're encouraged to participate," beams word from the game maker.
"This contest is open to entrants from around the world, and will be judged by Blizzard Entertainment’s own writers and masters of lore."
As well as a trip West, the winner gets dinner, meetings with the team, and a Frostmourne sword to take home.
Seven runners-up will also win things, taking away a goodie bag full of special, signed items. You can get involved online, now.
