Winners Announcement:

Honorable Mentions

Cara Michaels | @caramichaels
Liv says: Your words are as soft and delicious as the magic she wields. I think the tone between the two is adorable and the magic is not something you see everywhere. Great job!

T.A. Moorman | @GothicMoms
Liv says: As a mom, I really enjoyed this. Who wouldn’t want magic so they could dangle their son – I mean their consoles – out the window when they don’t listen and don’t do as told! Congrats!

Siren X Star | @sirenstar
Liv says: While there are some juxtapositions in the first paragraph that nearly threw me off, the sense of the essence of the characters is something you convey rather beautifully further down. There’s no doubt as to their relationship and I can easily imagine them in a longer piece. Congrats!

Week 301 Winner
Angora Shade | @AngoraShade

Liv says: Listen, this was lovely. You captured the essence of a villain set in what seems to be an interesting world. Having role-played quite a few villains in my gaming life, I thoroughly connected with her. Too right, you do it yourself!  Congrats!

Camilla grinned. The best type of villain was the one who saw their plans through to fruition. She rubbed her hands together in excitement, and whipped around hearing the telltale swish-thunk of Paddy’s limp-walk and peg leg. His comb-over grey was askew at a strange angle, and his expression held all the weight of a guilty conscious.

She didn’t even need to ask. “Failure!”

Paddy cowered before the fountain, lowering his eyes in all manner of respect.

“Did you follow it?”

“Yes, Mistress,” he chimed, his voice a rusty wheeze.

Camilla’s brow narrowed. “Did you set your trap?”

Paddy produced a broken snare from the recesses of his deep shirt pocket and shifted his weight more comfortably, leaning against the fountain for support.

Her lips became tight, her words like a hiss through her teeth. “Did you… talk to it?”

“Yes, yes,” Paddy confirmed. “Had a lovely conversation, we did.”

“Fool!” Camilla fell into a rage, shoving over stacks of magic books, tipping over her empty cauldron, and shattering any object of non-value within her reach. “You never talk to it!” She threw up her hands. “I feel like I’m talking to the air. Idiot.”

She scratched at her wrinkled cheek and played with the few stray whiskers adorning her chin. An idea was forming. She smiled.

“Bring the Wizzoodle, Paddy,” Camilla said warmly, patting her minion on the head and reaching for her favorite hat. “If I want something done right, I’ll do it myself.”

Congratulations Two Time Winner Angora, and Honorable Mentions Cara, T.A., and Siren! Don't forget to claim your badges and display them with pride. You certainly earned it!

Pass on the great news on Twitter, Facebook, Google Plus, shiny mirrors, Morse Code, and signal flags. Check out all the original tales HERE. Thanks for stopping by and happy reading! :)

Gina adjusted her scarf and tucked her tail back beneath her skirt, adjusting its hemline so it wouldn’t show. “I arranged a guide for you,” she said. “Did you follow it?”

Warren shook his head. “A guide? No…I saw nothing. Maybe they got lost. The trails are well overgrown. Lots of trees, bushes, huge shrubs. Most of them with thorns. You wouldn’t believe how sharp they are. Look!” He rolled his sleeves up, showing her his forearms.

They were blooded and covered in scratches; so many and so deep it must have been painful.

“My poor love. You must be so sore…”

“Hmmph. A little…but not so much. What did you say about that guide? Who did you send?” He laced his fingers together, opened his palms and pushed them outwards, making his knuckles click.

Gina winced. “I’m sorry,” she said, fingering her neck scarf. “You know I wouldn’t leave anything to chance…”

“Just tell me who you sent, so I can kick their ass. I’m hurting…they deserve some payback.” He parted his hands and clenched his fists, first breaking into a shuffle and then punching the air, making the noises he’d expect when his punches landed.

“Did you see a donkey, perhaps?” Wearing a scarf?” She twisted the material between her hands and then smiled.

“Damn you,” Warren said, suddenly slumping in on himself. “Do you have to transmute so often? What if you got stuck like that?”

“I dunno,” Gina said, sighing. “Actually…I do have a confession.”

Word of Advice
If you want to be a writer, don't think about writing or talk about writing; WRITE. And never give up on the stories.
