Search Term Challenge!

Witch lick feet. Strange publicity. Sideshow fables. Brain lightning. All of these are real words people entered into Google — don’t ask us why.

The Search Term Challenge is a biannual writing competition inspired by the bizarre and wonderful search terms people write. The challenge is simple: use a specific number of search terms verbatim in your tale, adhering to a particular word count length or other specification which varies every round.

The next Search Term Challenge will run in Spring 2011.
