"Short Story Competition 35"

It's short story competition number thirty-five!

I'll come straight to the point. The theme is

The Woods

Closing Date - November 15th

--------------

Result

Thanks to all who entered, this, maybe the final SSC on these forums. Who knows?

As always it was difficult to pick a winner.


The Runner's-up

FFF - Troupe. I like everything you write (even if you don't like it yourself). This was the usual enchanting and mazy creation.

Stryke - Acres of Shadowland. Once again an intriguing read, written in that likeable style of yours.

Meka Dragon - In The Woods Lies A Cabin. You're like an Amazon forest of variety and creation. Last time a musical, this time a creepy ghost story. I always see your stories being turned into pieces of cinematic drama. To my mind you are a very commercial writer - and I say that in the best possible way.

Prophet - Across The Mountain Forest. This felt like I'd opened a novel by an established author and read a couple of pages. It is so well-written and polished. Very nearly won.


The Winner

Ineedsleep - Just Passing Through. This reminded me of what the SSC is all about. Short and sweet, concisely expressed and mapped out, simple and effective. Just liked it the most.


So is this the last one, or are we just gonna carry on? I feel like I should make a speech or something... (better not).

This one will be great a boy gets chased by a load of crows in the woods. Other scary things with crows happened. Just started writing on my computer now.

I'm also looking forward to Killer C®ø§$ Bób's stories!

Crows? Counting crows!

*Hums*

I'm looking forward to Crossbob's, just because they're usually great to read.

Found my one today when tiding out my room. Will add it tomorrow, its about Crows.

I have an idea for this, its just about finding the time to write it.

If i was to enter, i would probably have made a continuation of the alchemist tale. Oh and made a directors cut of the first one.

Please everyone, read mine. I would really appreciate the comments! :)

Great theme will write mine tomorrow.

Personally, I'm a bit stumped with this one.

I get small bits of inspiration, but that's just what they are - small bits. Need to have a long think about it, and hopefully come up with something more substantial.
