  • Welcome to The Duelling Quill

    We're glad you stopped by. The Dueling Quill is a site designed to help writers improve their skills, styles, talents, and creativity. Here’s how it works. We will post a duel, and you will write an essay, story, poem, or whatever the duel is. We place constraints in order to focus your energies; we give you the title, genre, word limit, and due date. The rest is up to you. You are free to write whatever you want, so long as it conforms to the current duel and the Rules and Conduct of the site.
