Deadline - Thursday July 19th, midnight. Could be extended, would depend upon the number of entries at this time.

Topic: Angry Mob

Do with it what you will.

Glad you didn't make it easy for me, and there was plenty of variety in the stories, which made reading through them very interesting - I always like to see so many different takes on a theme.

In the end it was really between two very different stories in terms of tone and content (mine wasn't one of them...) and after a little to-ing and fro-ing I'm going to go for Everpain's 'The Gifthorse's Lament' as my winner.

Well done.

I'll right one if I can be bothered. I could really do with an opening paragraph to get me started... anyone?

Bob cowered, hidden amongst the stinking refuse as the angry mob rolled past screaming their bitter vitriol into the humid night air....

There. Never say I don't do anyone any favours.

I have a very good idea. Problem is getting the time to write it down and making it short enough.

It's something I could even turn into a novel...

From July 30th to August 2nd i'll write a story, because i'll have nothing else to do. Looks like i'll have to wait for the next one then.

You haven't so don't worry. Only Kidding! Meka will announce the winner on the due date, who will then set the next topic for the Short Story competition.
