I love that Petrarch! I loved the ending. At first I thought, "Wait a minna..." but then I pieced it together. I love how it all ties together. Great job!

I would like to point out one common feature of all these stories, for all of us who did NOT make it into this competition.
This may be a minor matter in the eyes of some, but I think it's VERY important in reading stories on a computer screen. In books on paper, you will not see blank lines between paragraphs, but to make your story more readable on a computer screen, it is virtually ESSENTIAL to do this.
Compare the eye appeal of the stories that made it to the final competition to the appeal of stories that don't have these blank lines, and I hope you'll agree that the blank lines help a great deal.
It's a good point you make DickZ :)
In August we asked that authors change they way they submit stories and for next year's competition too we will definitely encourage people to make submissions that are crafted as such that they are 'appealing' in this vBulletin setting. Many get submitted with html code and that does not 'translate' here so formatting gets lost.
Well done Petrarch and congratulations to all the authors who entered.
Zippy.
I have been reading stories, since long and my favorite stories are satires, but when I went through these stories, I found that they are really excellent and many of the story-tellers, out there have the ability to be Chekhov, Muppasant, O Henry or Stephen Leacock!!!
Best of luck!!!
Plz bless me that I might have got my story included here too!
How can I get my stories published here?
Can banyone get his stories here, or anyone checks them?
