Hey folks, my turn to pick the subject for the short story contest.

And it is...

An old mill.

Keep stories under 1500 words, and have them posted by the 17th.

Good luck, and I look forward to reading them.

Oh, and put (SSC2) before the topic title, so I know it's an entry. Fail to do so, and I might not read it. eg (SSC2) The Old Mill

But don't call your story the old mill

Yeah, I can see how you might not have known, given that it was right there, beneath the topic. ;o)

Heheh - mine's 1508 words.
Not bad considering I didn't even realise there was a word limit.

Aye, I can't stand reading from the screen, I tend to miss too much, skip through it. This way, I can give them my full attention.

Lots of good ideas but no time to write them. Oh well, I'll try for the next one.

You must be gutted that it's too late to enter.


On a separate note:

I'm having problems with my printer, and am trying to print out the last two entries, then I'll start reading them...
