Was that the "Bulwer-Lytton" contest from San Jose State?

Eddie:
You have to work hard to produce a piece of bad writing -- for some folks it comes naturally (and they get quite defensive when you point out to them that their writing is indeed bad -- it is often the case that the worse the writer the more defensive he/she becomes when criticized).

LazyGardens, No, it was a contest in Green Prints where I won a copy of a book that never got published.

Y'all are all good writers, in your own way. Who's the judge, anyway. And, witty!!!!

Here's my attempt a t bad writing which i find comes easily to me! I liked this concept, so i went to Google and searched on "World's best symphonies" and the first link led to a CD that held these titles...

Symphony No. 6 in B Minor, Opus 74 ("Pathétique") by Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky * Symphony No. 9 in E Minor, Opus 95 ("From the New World") by Antonin Dvoøák * Symphony No. 4 in A Major, Opus 90 ("Italian") by Felix Mendelssohn * Symphony No. 5 in C Minor, Opus 67, by Ludwig Van Beethoven * Symphony No. 8 in B Minor D.759 ("Unfinished") by Franz Schubert * Symphony No 1 in C Major by Georges Bizet * Symphony No. 40 in G Minor, K.550 by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart * Symphony No. 94 in G Major ("Surprise") by Franz Joseph Haydn...

and tried to use them in my bad sentence.... here she be.

She claimed to be Italian but she hailed from the new world, to the locals she was simply Pathétique, who watched with no surprise her slurp her spaghetti as if she were a starving peasant drinking Spring borcht, greedily leaving none unfinished.

"I'm a real nowhere man." He said. "You are a real nowhere man." She chided. "Sitting in a nowhere land." She added with just a touch of venom. They sat surrounded by the sound of silence as each was lost in there own private Idaho.
