For the very best examples of really bad (and funny) writing, check out the contest web site: http://www.sjsu.edu/depts/english/2007.htm

Oh man those are hilarious.  My favs are the one about Samson getting a haircut and the detective trailing the mailman.

Why haven't we started our own BL contest type thread somewhere in these boards?  Because I think we should.
I'm a videographer by trade.  Check out my work if you're a writer that needs to procrastinate.  Not as good as Rhett and Link, but I do what I can.

I like the winner in Children's Literature, for some reason:

Danny, the little Grizzly cub, frolicked in the tall grass on this sunny Spring morning, his mother keeping a watchful eye as she chewed on a piece of a hiker they had encountered the day before.
