Please vote to encourage these good writers.

Since I messed up the upload I suggest to increase the time to vote to 16th of May midnight.

@Torunn

I certainly will but for some reason I can’t read for too long.
I’ve read 6 so far. They are very good.

A thumbs up for every participant. It is amazing how much "raw" talent is available here. It was hard to pick three as favourites because there are so many real good and original ones. But alas; three it is.

5. Soul searching
3. Dogma
1. A reason to live

Really hard to award points. Like comparing apples, marbles and nails. All were worth reading. I am putting these votes in writing because then I can't keep changing my mind anymore!

This Little Piggy - 5
A Reason to Live - 3
Release - 1

5 Beyond the Horizon
3 Dogma
1 Rose Colored Glasses

5 points: Dogma
3 points: Lockdown
1 point: In which Reginald Goes for a Walk


Hard to choose, and brilliant work everyone.

Really difficult to decide. (I know people always say that, but it 'really' is). For reasons I will give later:

5 points - Release
3 points - Billy Southridge
1 point - Dogma

Thank you everybody for Voting.
I had to offer early voters to Change their votes to be fair to the stories I had omitted. So no foul play if they do.

First - A reason to live
Second - Release
Third - Rose coloured glasses

#1: Release
#2: Billy Southridge
#3: This Little Piggy

Exciting stuff.

I always try and guess which writer has written what, but this year seems harder than usual. Looking forward to discussing the entries once the comp is over.
