Flash Fiction Contest #3 Winner

Thank you to everyone who participated in this week's contest. You did not disappoint. Some of you even seemed intent on giving me nightmares. At least now I have some new things to occupy my thoughts while doing a midnight bathroom run.

As a reminder, our grand prize winner (grand prize: the badge; yes, we're fancy around here with our prizes) can't win again for another three months. For those who won an Honorable Mention, you didn't get the badge; therefore, you have no waiting period.

Our next contest is Friday, Nov. 6! Come back then!

Oh, wow. Thank you! How cool I've got a badge with my name. When I read through the other entries on Saturday, I thought I didn't stand a chance! I can see here I'm in great company. Thanks for the fun challenge!
