For a while there, I used to enter the "Three Day Novel" contest, run by a place in Canda. (This was years ago, and the details have faded from memory.) I *believe* it was begun because Voltaire was said to have written Candide in three days. Start writing and midnight on a certain day and keep chugging for 72 hours. The marathon of writing. It was more fun that writers were allowed to have.

The first year I entered was the last year they were able to offer individual comments on the novels. After that, they got too many entries.

Mine was the usual. "Very well written...but...."

The "but" was interesting. My characters were so nice they weren't believeable. That rather gave me pause....
