Well... as some of you know by now... my entry is up. It was tough recreating something I had already invested some time into, but the final product is, in my opinion, much better. I stared off with a story at about 2300 words... which gave me some wiggle room to fix some things that needed to be addressed. I asked a couple of really good friends to look my story over and give me some feedback. From there, I tweaked, adjusted, added, & subtracted to what you see now at just over 2900 words. So, here's my shameless plug... if you are interested in a different take on a foot fetish story, I ask you give my tale of desperation and an indecent proposal a try.

Any late stragglers, I urge you to get your entries in, in the next day or so, otherwise they are unlikely to meet the minimum # votes criteria.

I have not entered a competition in a while, but had an idea that I thought would work. I would appreciate your taking the time to read it and perhaps letting me know what you think with a comment.

It is "Prescription for Ennui" and here is the link:

Psst. Typo alert. shouldn't it be Henri, not Ennui? btw, best of luck.

You can’t truly call yourself peaceful unless you are capable of violence. If you’re not capable of violence, you’re not peaceful. You’re harmless.

Well, as mine was the first to be entered, I fear it may have become lost in the veritable avalanche of excellent submissions. I might as well give it a last minute plug.

https://www.lushstories.com/stories/reluctance/mallory-monroe-birth-of-a-streetwalker.aspx

While most stories focused on the and erotic aspects of selling sex, I felt I'd explore the darker emotions involved in the real world of prostitution. Whit that in mind, I related to the streets I myself haunted in my younger days. Mallory is a fiction, but she is based on women I spoke to many times on those streets in the Pomona Valley. My hope is only that the reader feel the desperation that drives young women into that line of work.

Scores are up and I will admit... I did better than I expected. Now it's up to the judges. Good luck to all the entrants. I don't envy the judges on this one.

My score surprised me as well. Twist endings -- even happy ones -- don't often fly.

Trying to stay within such a small wordcount isn't exactly my comfort zone, either. Most of my setups are longer than that.

Why did the competition close last night but reopen again today? I'm so confused.

For some reason last night it was closed and everyone could see their scores, but now they're closed off again. As if the competition was still in play. Don't know what's happening.

It seems the extended it one more day. I'm happy as I just picked up some more scores. Good, bad, or otherwise... I'm glad I only entered and that I don't have to pick the winner.. it's going to be a tough choice.

Ok, I'll try and explain.

If I put the closing date as the 12th (midnight), it publishes the 12th as the closing date on the competition page, automatically. That's all good.

The trouble is, it somehow has to be linked to the server time of the site. For some irritating reason, every competition it closes off a day early. It is still the 12th.

So I have to manually open the competition again, and set the 13th as the deadline. The 12th remains the closing date, but it will show the 13th automatically as the finishing date, on the competition page - which is wrong. Confused yet?

Gav will fix this once and for all, with any luck, after the mongo server is upgraded.

Nobody should really be submitting a story on the last day of any competition. If they do, they run the risk of not qualifying as each entry needs at least 10 votes.

Makes sense to me Nic. I thought it said July 11, not July 12... but maybe that was my mistake. Gav can fix this... he's a miracle worker when it comes this kind of stuff.

I still don't envy the judges... they've got a lot of work ahead of them.
