We had a tremendous turn out for this competition, with over 60 entries.

The standard was so high, and the variety of takes on the theme so varied, it was incredibly hard to shortlist, let alone judge.

Even with over half a dozen judges giving their input, it was still very tight at the top, with only 6 points separating the first 4.

Here are the Top 3:

1st Place ($150): Sex and bird watching, by tams_back_yay
2nd Place ($100): Twisted, by Vanessa26
3rd Place ($50): An illness, a duel, a runaway horse, by Voltemand

Taking out the remainder of the Top 10 were these excellent entries:

Second Time's a Charm, by Saucymh
Redemption, by ChrisM
Cassandra of the Hetari, by Milik_the_Red
Luminous, by AylaJ
Zucchini and the art of environmental maintenance, by CuriousAnnie (This deserves a separate prize for the story title. It's been decades since I read that book!)
And then he finger fucked my flower, by Kimmibegood
Rocky Mountain High, by Ping

There were many stories which didn't make the Top 10, which we feel deserve an RR, so we'll be getting to those soon enough.

A huge thank you to everyone who took part, to our judging panel, and to our readers who lent their support.

To the winners, I'll be in touch about your prizes.

A new competition will be announced soon.

Cheers,

Nicola x

honestly, there were another 10 stories that all should have been tied for 10th, so yeah, going to be some RRs going out. congratz on everyone in the top 10, and super congratz to Tam, Vanessa, and Voltemand who freaking killed it on this one.

I'm guessing the judges need a rest. Brutal selection process. Thanks judges et al.

Congrats everyone! Super well done with this.

Wait.

Are you saying eleven stories would have finished in tenth spot, but didn't, possible due to that thing I did to secure it?

Whoa. Who knew tongue exercises could make the difference.

yes, there are 10 people who didn't make the top 10 because of YOU! i'm going to let them know individually that it's your doing that they were left off the list. i hope your insurance is paid up.

Outstanding Competition! Congratulations to Tams_back_yay for First Place in one of the toughest and best comps ever. That's quite an accomplishment! There were so many stories capable of winning a story competition this time around that it blew me away.

There are many RR worthy stories that didn't make the Top 10, and this is one really Outstanding Top 10 list.

So super congratulations to tams_back-yay at First Place, Vanessa26 at Second (and Vanessa's writing is rocketing upward.), and Voltemand (a really talented newcomer here.)

And the rest of y'all rounding out the Top 10:

Not my fault the site sometimes takes ages to respond, then when it does you find you've hit the button more than once and then don't have the ability to delete it.

So, who came 10th. Anyone I know or appreciate ???

Yay, congratulations to the winners, top-tenners, and for the amazing turnout in this contest. 60+ entries is astounding. Just looking at the titles/first paragraphs alone and sheer variance in the theme interpretation, I'd be hard-pressed to shortlist a top 20, let alone 10. Hats off to all participants and judges.

Please browse my digital bookshelf. In this collection, you can find 116 full stories, 10 micro-stories, and 2 poems with the following features:


* 29 Editor's Picks, 75 Recommended Reads.
* 15 competition podium places, 11 other times in the top ten.
* 21 collaborations.
* A whole heap of often filthy, tense, hot sex.
