The rules:

Enter as many times as you like, and it can be as long as you like, but if I'm not interested by the time I have to scroll down the screen, I won't read the rest.

I'll judge on the weekend of the 10th/11th, so entries in before then please.

And the topic is:

Blood in the snow

That doesn't mean it has to be about murder and mutilation, by the way. Or self-harming. I won't read any stories that go "I cut myself because I am sad, and I want attention," but if they're forced to harm themselves for other reasons, gnaw off an arm to free themselves from a wreckage, for instance, that's okay.

RESULTS

Fantastic entries, very high standard this time, many were a joy to read. Had trouble picking a winner from the last three, all of which were very strong. Special mention for Styke for mocking self-harming. 4 REAL.

Runners up:

tnc: - Noble trades are no more
FFF: - Escape

Winner:

unknown kernel: - At the Bottom of a Flask

Ok Meka;

Noble trades are no more was entered under an SSC30 heading but is meant to be an SSC31 entry

I'd be grateful if you judged it. Sorry for the mistake

Make a new thread with an SSC31 title and link to your story explaining that it's an SSC31 story in the linking thread.

That way you'll get more people than just Meka to read it. :)

Ignore my first entry. I was a bit hasty with that one. I want to alter and expand it, change the title, etc. I've erased it.

I have an idea ... it's nothing revolutionary, but it's not bad.

My two stories I've already made are bad. I'm gonna have another attempt.
