    Voting off to a slow start as usual. But at least the stories are being read, hopefully. Remember, everyone, this is the shortest month of the year, so you have less time to make your minds up. If we are going to have these competitions, we should support them by voting in them, I should think. Use the vote or lose it, they always say. Be a shame to lose things. We have little enough votes as it is!
    Some of us laugh
    Some of us cry
    Some of us smoke
    Some of us lie
    But it's all just the way
    that we cope with our lives...

    Dont worry, Pen. I have downloaded all the stories, have read two, but will soon finish the rest and decide which one to vote for

    The competition has my full support.

    Good Luck to all contestants
    Charms strike the sight, but merit wins the soul.

    My compliments to all of the writers. I enjoyed all of the stories. Thanks for submitting them. It was very close.

    My compliments to all the writers as well. I had a hard time deciding. I loved them all. You are all incredibly talented.

    Read the stories last night for the second time. I enjoyed them all. Good work everyone. There were two or three on the first read that I could have voted for. On the second read, I felt a definete preference.

    Have to say this short story contest is one of my favorite aspects of lit net. Kudos to who ever thought of it.

    All the stories were terrific! Quite hard to choose. Congrats for a job well done to all the contestants!
    I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of anything than of a book! When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.
