The "Creative Writing" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
For those new to the whole thing, here's how it works:
- Topic and rules (wordcount etc) are set in this post
- Everyone writes a story based on the topic with their own spin on it.
- The Title must be SSC3 + your title (ie: SSC3 - The man in the moon)
- Judging begins on the closing date
- Winner gets to set up the next SSC and admiration from everyone else.
Ok, so here's Number 3:
Topic: "Full Moon"
Wordcount: Over 800 words
Closing Date: 9am 3rd November - Winner announced that day. (delayed until Ineedsleep has finished).
Now, go write!
Result:
Right, bit of a delay, but the result is here.
Another tough one to judge as well. All good stories and all different.
But there can only be one winner (etc etc) and that is:
Sibelius with 'Silver Penny Moon Legend' - it was enchanting in a strange way and entirely different.

Glad you noticed. Thought it was a nice touch!
The moon looks really full!
Pb - you were early setting the deadline.
Did you pick the title because you'd been looking in a diary checking bonfire night and noticed it?
Or are you a worshipper of the moon?
Or is it a spooky coincidence that this weekend is the weekend of the full moon?
.. it is fuller tonight then it was last night :D
Okay, I'll make a new SSC sometime tomorrow.

No it was different, but I'd edit the story a bit.......
Can I?
Edit: Scratch that, my dumb brother must have deleted it off of the documents. Along with the rest of my stories.
