The 50-word story contest over at www.GeekingOutAbout.com has wrapped up, and the winners have been announced!
Congratulations to Chris Fries and Leslie Hanna, who won an ebook copy of Fifty-Word Stories: Volume One, and to D.C. McMillen, whose story The 8:15 Train (which you can read below) earned the $25 top prize.
The 8:15 Train
We purposely collided on the 8:15. Before reaching this pivotal moment, we’d spent weeks admiring each other from afar. She laughed, taking the blame for our faux collision. Some small talk, then we played hooky at a nearby hotel. Now I take the 7:45.
It was a great contest, and really difficult to judge. Head over to the GeekingOutAbout post to read some more of the really strong entries.
Congratulations to D.C. for a great story and a deserved win! Also to Leslie for a wonderful entry also!
And finally, a humble ‘thank you very much’ for including me as well — I am honored and still very excited to have won!
Thank you! I am so excited that my entry was chosen and congrats to Chris and Leslie as well.
