My turn for ditto -- thanks, mosaix, for the vote!

Okay, passing perhaps into the grotesque here, but just saw this story on cnn and all I could think of was Juliana's entry:

Georgia elderly man decapitated, wife missing; police seek clues - CNN.com

Oh no! It has begun...

If you hear the gargoyles whisper, stop up your ears and RUN!!!!

(On a more serious note, what a horrible story, Tywin! I don't know why we bother writing, reality can be even scarier.)

I think (and forgive me if I'm wrong...) it was Mark Twain who said: "The only difference between fiction and reality is that fiction has to be credible..."

 

[Juliana]

So true!

 

[Boneman]

I do so love stealth votes, especially when I see them first thing in the morning. Thank you so much Crystal Haven!!

 

[crystal haven]

You're welcome, Boneman. I really enjoyed your story.

 

[Jo Zebedee]

You're welcome, Boneman. I really enjoyed your story.

And thank you from me, too.

 

[crystal haven]

You’re very welcome, Springs. I really enjoyed your story too.

I was going to sneak in the back door and vote without anyone noticing me, but now I’m here…

I felt the standard was really high for all the stories. Well done everyone.

My votes go to:
Springs – Frizzled memories
Boneman – Lucifer
Juliana – Whispers

 

[Juliana]

Thank you very much, Crystal Haven!

Seems impossible to log on here the past few weeks. When May is done I will be able to visit as regularly (and for as long!) as usual. In the meantime I thought I should get on before the poll closes, and have had a great afternoon reading the entries.

Oh! How it pains me to vote for the competition

My favourites:

Juliana - Whispers
Springs - Frizzled Memories
Ratsy - Memory Stick
Victoria Silverwolf - Redemption Man
David Evil Overlord - Future Imperfect
Perp - Tom
StilLearning - A Scottish night
Chrispenycate - I am magnetism
TDZ - Passing of the Torch

I voted for:

Springs
Victoria Silverwolf
TDZ

Great entries, all, as has been said numerous times already. I believe I've managed to thank those who mentioned or voted my pedestrian effort so this is a short post!

Yes, I'm always the one who just comes out and says that sort of thing.

 

[Ursa major]

And yet given your avatar, one would have imagined you'd do so in a more roundabout way....

 

[Rafellin]

I go away for a couple of days and a vote lands!

Thank you, StilLearning.

Well, a lot of good that did!

Does Mr Smack need to come and pay Chronsland a visit?

Because he will, you know.
