Create a Contest!

Opium's known for our wacky contests: 500-Word Memoir, 250-Word Bookmark, 7-Line Story.

Annoyingly, we don't have a fourth, to make the cycle a bit rounder (or to consider doing two per issue, maybe).

The idea: we invite the Opium readers and the literati to create Opium's "next" contest.
Questions: What's the reward? (There's already the "Shya Scanlon 7-Line Story Contest.")
Do we name the contest after them? $50, and two free entries to any Opium contests? Something else? What's our strategy for monetizing (charge to enter seems a little silly)? Sponsors?
