I think I read them all and there wasn't one that I didn't love.

Been looking forward to this afternoon of no work so I could treat myself and binge on the stories.

Well done folks, you made my day off great!

We should publish a new book of our stories each month - proceeds going to charity!

Maybe a yearly anthology of the top six of each contest might work...

I know everyone's busy and I am NOT complaining but, I thought I would mention that there are some entries getting buried (no pun intended) on the second page.
Mentioning in case a mod has time to pin them or anyone looking will know there are more there to read.



Have a great day!

(coffee, really!)

a reply to: TNMockingbird

Yeah mods

Like mine. I'm renaming my story as well to

Star and flag me you punks!!!!!

a reply to: TheAlleghenyGentleman

Heh...two can play at this game!!

This Story deserves tons MORE Flags and stars!!!

a reply to: Flyingclaydisk

a reply to: tothetenthpower

I'm still working on mine. Argh!!

ETA. With that many entries I may sit this one out. Holy smokes!!

a reply to: AboveBoard

AB - I for one know how well you write and would enjoy seeing your take on the theme. In the last contest I turned mine in the day before and still made the podium, so I humbly suggest you go for it.

ETA: Love the avatar, BTW!

a reply to: PrairieShepherd

Thank you so much...I haven't really read the other stories yet, so I may just look like a copy-cat!! lol!

I decided that I had done so much on it already, I might as well finish it...

"Writer" status (back from the days when there weren't 8 million entries...)

Acension - YJA 2017 Please For The Love Of All That Is Holy Read S&F My Entry!!! *ahem* I modified the title a bit... It seems to be a trend.



Okay then. Lemme know what ya'll think. I'm not sure myself. It's a bit...hm. Sci-fi?

You're welcome. I thought the same thing when I posted mine. "Holy smokes, I haven't read any of the others. What if mine is exactly the same premise as someone else?"

It's a tough thing to put yourself out there. Each story has a little bit of the author inside it. Sometimes, perhaps, more than a little.

a reply to: tothetenthpower

Thanks for the stickies Tenth!

Thanks for the entry AB's!

Hey Everyone...
There are just 10 days left to enter!
So, if you haven't got your entry in yet.... Now is the time to start sorting it out!

(At a quick glance... I think that there are almost 40 entries so far!!
That is just Incredible, Well Done Everyone.)
