    Re: Halloween contest - Oct 31 deadline

    We don't usually discuss entries before voting closes in case this sways voter opinions like a swarm of Russian media bots, but if you're lonely, do start a conversation! The roses are still blooming here, they have no idea what time of year it is but they're not allowed to discuss climate change any more.

      I'll remain silent then. If everybody else will.

      Silencio.

        I just took an unearthly dump.


        We could talk about that.

            10 entries, like the good old days.
            I had a read of them all, with no notes, just to get the feeling. Some good stuff there.
            I'll have a second reading to write notes and choose my favourites.
            Great work, everybody!

              The Golgothan poop monster rises again! Maybe something for next year's Halloween contest (he speculated optimistically).

              My thoughts exactly, and that's how I do it too.

                Regrets to my fellow writers for not submitting an entry. We recently had a cancer diagnosis in our extended family. Been a rough go.

                Congrats and good luck to all!

                  Sorry to hear that Bio, that's a shock and very tough adjustment to make, the writing and entering pales into insignificance next to that... and hey, you know... all the best though ...huh?


                  Take care fella.

                      I'm sorry -- I'm hoping for the best for everyone.

                          Everyone who entered has voted now, so I guess I'll wait and see if any non-contestants deliver votes (which sometimes they do!) and post the results first thing tomorrow morning.

                          I enjoyed the reads. Always difficult to pick just 3 when others also had appeal, but that's how it's gotta be. But, winner or no, we all get shiny participant medals.

                            So true, probably the hardest part of all this (apart from writing the story itself).

                              Ha ha.... I wrote my entries in something like.... 40 mins, 40 mins and 30 mins, maybe it was longer with amendments for typos and time passes quickly when you write, but it was not too much longer............
                              Therefore, if they sink to the bottom of the tank to where the rest of the fish-toys sit, in terms of scoring, I wouldn't be surprised, but regardless, I'm not here for the GLORY, as ever it was just good to get something in and write.

                                Road, you magnificent bastard. Writing Halloween stories with one foot in the grave. Brilliant, I say!
