Discussion -- 300 Word Challenge #7

[Perpetual Man]

Although, I'm obviously pleased I did well this time around, I'm sort of glad I did not win putting aside the fact that Grinnel's deserved to win, such a unique idea doing it in comic script format), but I felt mine was not original enough, and I felt kind of guilty each time I got another vote.

I will say that I did not realise that as I was writing it, but only as I looked back at later on.

Big Congrats to Grinnel.
I loved you story!

 

[Juliana]

Congratulations Grinnel!!!

 

[Grinnel]

Thanks for the artwork, Perp!

If I were computer litterate, I'd print it out, blow it up and pin it to my wall with the following caption: %#@&&@!!

 

[Perpetual Man]

My pleasure Grinnel.

When I first saw your script I was tempted to try and draw it, but time was against me (and I'm so out of practice, and wasn't that good in the first place )

This post will be appearing in the 75 Challenge Thread Discussion as well:

When I do my comments each and every month (except when there is a baby on the way), I want to do every bodys. As most of you know the only remit I have is to be positive about each and every story, even when I don't always understand them...

This is made so much easier by the fact the quality of writing here is through the roof. Every story. Each and every month.

But every now and then, in my haste or by unexpected distraction, or pure carelessness I miss someone. For me this is one of the worst things I can do, because it makes the writer feel as though there might be a reason I missed it.

I try never to miss a story, but I might.

As of this time as far as I'm aware, I've missed three, a small but illustrious group, but if anyone notices I've skipped someone can they please let me know.

I post in order of entry, so if one is missing it should be easy to notice.

And to the threesome I missed (And anyone else who might not have mentioned it), I apologise, and blame it on being a complete buffoon, or that the sheer brilliance of your stories blew my mind and I could not go back and look at them again...

Perp.

Congrats Grinnel,

It appears to have been a tight competition, one that in my opinion was filled with many enjoyable and vivid stories.

Excuses aside, I manged to miss the voting deadline, next time I'll put the closing date into my smarter-than-me-phone so I don't forget.
I would have voted for Reiver33, The Holy Drunk and Mosaix and although my votes wouldn't have changed the winner they would have effected second place, so sorry about that, especially to you Reiver, my bad.

 

[Glen]

congrats to the winner Grinnel!

And thanks to StilLearning and The Holy Drunk for the votes! You are champs!

 

[mosaix]

Congrats Grinnel,


I would have voted for Reiver33, The Holy Drunk and Mosaix

Thanks for the potential vote, Billy.
