I think Artificial Love edged this one out as it happens. Clearly enjoy your style of writing.

@AnRoinnUltra - looks like I voted for you again, pal. I also voted for you in the August 75 word challenge I believe.

Thanks for the vote @Ian Fortytwo

Wholly Admiral Ackbar's pits! Three people wrote seven stories each.

 

[Christine Wheelwright]

Well done @Elckerlyc !

 

[Victoria Silverwolf]

Many congratulations!

Wholly Admiral Ackbar's pits! Three people wrote seven stories each.

Well, what can I say. I felt inspired, the stories kept coming. Contrary to the previous edition when I had none at all.

 

[AnRoinnUltra]

Star Wars, comedy, two world weary characters ...gonna take a wild guess and say 'The Inspection' is the work of @paranoid marvin

You are correct.

Looks like the thread is slowing down, so:

Thanks to @Bren G and @AnRoinnUltra for the votes and to @Astro Pen for the mention!
Glad you enjoyed my stories.
