DU Beat- An Independent Students’ Newspaper, in association with Random Magazine present
WORDSPILL
A monthly creative writing competition
Theme: DISGUSTING
Public latrines and the divine scent that encompasses us as we walk past these temples dedicated to filth; The much practiced art of picking individual nose hair from cooperative nostrils; Projectile spit of multiple colors that might just catch you smack in the eye in case you aren’t looking.
Quite disgusting, we agree. And Word Spill, the DU Beat writing competition is dedicated to just that. Who says brilliant literature can’t be shitty. In this case the shittier the better. We want the best written, most disgusting entry that your putrid little brain can conjure.
1st prize: Rs 3000
2nd prize: Rs 2000
Winning entries would be published in the “RANDOM” magazine.
Email your entries to wordspill@dubeat.com
All entries should be emailed as word documents and subject line should be ” WORDSPILL”
All entries must be original and not more than 600 words.
The competition is open to everyone
Last date for entries is 15th august. HURRY!!
Winning entries to be announced on the 19th of august in the DU beat issue

i’m studying in CBS which is part od DU but an off – campus colg.
hence, the DU Beat issue is not stacked by the canteen wala or the library , it doesnt reach us and is not circulated in the colg !!!!
how do i check which entries won for this month’s competition and read their entries.
(it’s posing a problem as i dont think this site mentions the above mentioned !!!)
isnt it more conevenient fr everybdy if the site updates the winners every month and announces them so that ppl who dont have access to the magz can still remain in touch !!!
