    Wow, Scheherazade - and you used to be so dainty looking. I guess you've been putting in lots of hours at the gym.

    That was a mask I was wearing... People don't want to listen to a green giant named Scheherazade!

    I will always vote, as I feel the writers need someone to read what they have taken the time to write. I know how hard it is to come up with just the right words. But I have submitted my last story to this contest...

    If I caused problems last time, I apologize. But my reading of the rules would seem to prove me correct in what I did...

    Sorry

    Pen
    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...

    I didn't realize that we were this far along already. I'll read them and vote this week.

    Only four more days...

    And considering how equally the votes are distributed, we really do need more votes!
