Great job everybody! Very nice works by everyone. Looking forward to doing this again as it allows me to attempt a art form that I never thought of trying until I joined Red Hot Pawn. See you next time and thanks for the votes! Special thanks to Silverstriker who watches over this contest for us all.

I guessed it was you due to the focus on scientific/technological innovation. πŸ™‚

It wasn't bad, actually. And it's hardly your first attempt at writing - you've been writing posts on this forum for years. Despite what others may say, that counts.

Yes, I agree, even writing in posts here is practice organizing your thoughts so I can thank RHP for getting me to the point where I can write SOMETHING!

Thanks to all the contributors and to the organizer.

Wow, Drew! Keep writing and get yourself properly published. e-publishing is dead easy these days; PM me if you want some how-to pointers.

Cheers, moonbus

I think I have heard that 50 shades of grey was first published on such a model...
The aim would not necessarily be to make money from the e-publishing, but could be to get the attendance of publishers.
