So glad you broke through the writer's block, midnightpoet. You writing has oodles of atmosphere and leaves me wanting more ... |

Something startled me into consciousness, but what it was I couldn’t say. My mind seemed sluggish, as if I was awakened from a deep sleep, not yet fully aware of my surroundings. Part of me clung to the silence of the darkness from which I was emerging. |

Thanks, mdawrcn! This is my literary debut, inspired by the need to have something to do at 2 a.m. when sleep evades me. |

'fine little story' looks kinda condescending but actually it is, and the ending really threw me, just like it should |

Thanks for pointing that out, mdawrcn. I don't know where the there in that sentence came from. It seems my editing skills were suffering in the wee hours of the morning. |

If you read it carefully, you'll see he was just THINKING about the polishing. A world of difference. Just like he's still trying intending to finish the letter she distracted him from. Just I'm here writing this note while my one and only remaining illustration client is going out her mind wondering where her picture is right now. I barely had to make anything up... But in case you're wondering (and before you get too alarmed), none of my wives has ever darned a sock so far as I know. |

Yes, I see. I stand corrected. I'm sure your client will be thrilled with her picture when she does get it. |

I think there would be one set of rules (rigid) for stories eligible to win, and another set of rules (no rules) for anything else. |

I will pass the torch in the morning - so far it's between Chelydra, Marg, and Hazer - will any more appear during the night, brought to us by little elves, perhaps? |

I couldn’t believe my eyes —I’d dreamt of this moment from the day I read about the last verified sighting of a rainbow scorpion, on the Gaspé Peninsula — at noon on 27 November 1935, on the icy steps of the general store in downtown Murdochville — and that one was just about frozen to death, its rich colors sadly faded. |
