When the comp rubric supplies a complete title (e.g, #2727 “An unwelcome bequest”), it seems obvious that we’re free to use the full 150 words. Everybody’s title is the same in that case, and winning entries are printed without titles. But this comp is a bit different. Any title we come up with will be integral to our specific entry -- Fifty Shades of Graham Greene, Fifty Shades of Blue Peter, Fifty Shades of Red Menace, Fifty Shades of Night Are Falling. I suspect that Bazza’s on pretty firm ground with his assumption, but I’m a timid soul and will probably err on the side of caution. Naturally, I encourage everybody else to err in the opposite direction so that their entries might be disqualified and my odds improved.
