Here's your cover, now write the book: Orphan Paper's dirty challenge

Pulp was an industry first, all about the marketing, the books sold in metal racks of a certain size, to be read by subway riders, folks with little time to spare, who were more interested in the dirt, not the flowers. Covers were as important as the content. In 2019 Orphan Paper will invite artists and writers to the challenge - create a fast and dirty novella from a cover.

So keep grinding your cigarette butts into the ash tray, and remember: It doesn’t matter what the hell you write, so long as it sells.
