It was quiet, the sounding of the train’s whistle in the distance disturbing it momentarily. Too quiet, indeed, to be natural. The train in the distance was not ordinary. It was a nightmare, vaporizing whatever it touched andby Trinity Dragon 400 words, 15 comments, on Mar 13 12:50 PM 2007. In Horror• Commented on by judge.

OMG!!!! :D
This is just.. wow, a challenge!
and the prizes are just... *eyes bug out* *kicks her muse back to action*
-
ooohhh I am up for the challenge (I think). Will see what I can come up with
-
Fantastic contest!
Can you change the "writters" on your poster to "writers"....please? Thanks so much - joanne -
Do you want us to put all the stories on one page, or submit them separately?
-
-
It is up to you but I think separately would be good
-
-
sorry, but that it almost one of my storys but it doesn't have SC FI.
-
I haven't written a short story in a while. This will surely challenge my muse. Thanks for the prompt. LOL The encouragement in winning three months Gold Membership is really going to keep the Mods busy reading. LOL This makes me think we need to do something of this nature to get some visitors at Oldpoetry. Hmmmmmm... I am bookmarking this! Have fun!
Much Love ♥

OH MY GOSH!!!! THIS IS FRIGGIN NIFTY!!!!
-
1 story
It wont let me enter more than 1 story what should i do? Also I'll need to reapply my other, first story. Is it ok to repost it on story write for this contest? -
Do you want all three stories as one post or posted separately?
-
If we only enter 1 or 2 stories, do we get disqualified?
Like, is 3 entries an absolute MUST?
Otherwise, GREAT contest!!!
I really plan on entering!! Just gotta get writing... I mean, THOSE PRIZES! sheesh!!
-
I'm in need of some help, i don't quite understand... are we to enter three stories or can we enter only one?
-
I'm short. I may just enter.
-
I belive they mean that you must enter three stories, each story must be in a different genre. ex:
1 childrens, 1 romance, 1 Science fiction. the genres or catagories, can be whatever you choose. -
Mmm...
I wrote one...but mine says that it's only 451 words. I made sure that it was 500...
What's going on? -
-
The word count is off on the site, so we're copying and pasting into word for the count. If it's 500, then don't worry.
-
-
Yes, that also happened to me. not sure what is with that.
-
I'm writing something for this now, I only have two stories written up. I'm still working on my third one...so yep!
~Gaby~ -
Thank you for extending the closing date! I am still working on my stories but I will try to complete them today.
-
To the entrants.....
Just wanted to say that I have read and commented on all the entries that remained after closing, and....
WOW! There are some very good short stories here! It amazes me how 14 diverse writers can create such interesting stories.
As we know, not everyone can win, but you should all be extremely proud of yourself for rising to the challenge and posting these gems for us to read.
