Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on October 24, 2008
- Rewards: Gold: 100, Silver: 50, Bronze: 25, Honorable mention: 4 people
- Final notes: I have judged this contest early because I'm leaving for a 30 day exercise in California next week and don't you all to wait for me to return to know who won what (because I hate having to wait myself).
They are in this order for a reason. The gold went to the short story that made me laugh, I'm a sucker for a bad pun or play on words.
Silver went to a story that thought outside the box, even if it made me a bit depressed and worried about the after life.
Bronze went to an extremely short but touching story that was well worded and paced.
The HMs are in order, and for various reasons, but I thank everyone for entering and hope you all look into any contests I post for the future!

Thank You
Thanks so very much for the silver trophy and all the points. I appreciate them. I hope you like my story. I intended it to be wry humor. I wasn't trying to depress anyone.
Thanks for hosting. I hope you had a good time.
Andy
