Another contest and Eco on writing

Umberto Eco has a new book, "Confessions of a Young Novelist" out and Salon has reviewed it.  He might be the most famous author I have followed somewhat but have never read.  I should do something about that.

From Boingboing comes another Science Fiction writing contest.  This one looks to write an Asimov-style story about a robot and what it might feel.  The contest is described in full  here.

Some time ago, I wrote about another recent request for submissions.  This was for Machines of Death 2.  I am using all my creativiti, but I can find to hook or start to such a story.
