The title of this one is...
Foreign
BUT... I want no Science Fiction tales, which should test you all a bit.
Expecting some good results. Winner will be based on any particular story that moves me, makes me laugh or engages me in any way.
No word limit or number of entries, so you're free to write that epic or 200 word mini-story.
and the date...
Sunday 11th March. (Week's extention)
That's 2 weeks, folks. If I feel it needs to finish earlier or later, I'll change it. But for now, go with that date.
Now get those thinking caps on...
And the winner is...
Black Glove.
But...it wasn't by much. All the stories were great, Nickgreen surprised me. It was just that the story, Running Underground, was the nearest to the subject. In the end that just clinched it.
I have extended the deadline of this SSC though by a week...
Wait, have you actually read it?
> You want me to extend the deadline? As it's you and I'm used to
> good quality stories from you...
If you wouldn't mind.
Hell, I can't explain it.
Black Glove is going to win anyway.....
EDIT:
Of course if I wasn't spending my time trying to get FOG going I would have more time to think something up.
Alas.........
> Yeah.
> Honestly pb, foreign is quite painful for me, at least, to try.
Don't want it to be too easy, do we?
You could write about:
Journalist in another country.
Someone feeling out of place in a situation.
Food.
Xenophobia
and many more...

You want me to extend the deadline? As it's you and I'm used to good quality stories from you...
I beg you.
