Right, lets get this done. I am the winner, which is nice. You all know the rules by now, I'm sure:

-You can enter more than once, if you really feel the need.
-As long as you like

Good rules, those. The topic shall be:

Rescue

Hopefully there's a bit of scope there.

And your closing dates for these potential gems - 25th October

Get to it.

Here we go. I've had a good looksee at the entries over the past week or so, and I've known the winner since it was first posted, sorry. So it was a battle for 2nd and 3rd all the way, and it was close between pb, tnc, JFH and Prophet. I've gone with:

3rd - tnc, Is This Life?

Very atmospheric despite being quite short, which is hard to do. Well done.

2nd - Prophet, Hole In The Head

Liked pretty much everything you've written so far. This is no different. Nice flowing story.

1st - Black Glove, Nailer

I thought for a while about this. Not because it wasn't the best (which it was), but because the Glove won the one before this and I didn't want people to think I was choosing him because he chose mine, and all that. But I don't care, it was the best story by far. Shows imagination I wish I had and inspired use of words.




So there that is. Big hand to Glove.
