    I'm almost done too, just got to clean up presentation, check the grammer, write the conflict and resolution. It's like I'm practically done!

    The last minute pieces have begun to trickle in, but you have almost 48 hours to write so don't stop.

    Finally got an idea! A rather small idea, but i think it's good enough.

    Lots of first time entrants. I do not believe we had this many first time entrants since the short story contests inaugural year.

    If anyone needs a few hours extension let me know. I'm working on my own last minute piece and I'm still waiting on a piece from @WhenTheSkinksMarch , I'd hate to not see anything from you after you posting about it. No pressure though ;)

    We got eight entries now. If someone (such as @Infinity Turtle or @spawning of Bob, who both insinuated they are going to write something) can push us over to nine entries, this will enable readers to vote for up to three pieces.

    And best of all, four of these eight authors have never submitted a short story contest entry before.

    Make new friends, but keep the old.
    One is silver and the other gold
