giraffmang: In the last few weeks, I have received an honourable mention in the Writers of the Future contest for my piece 'What A Day' (which began from a prompt on this site) and today I found out I've made the long list for Black Springs Press's Best of Bottom Drawer global writing competition for my Jeremiah Flint western stories.

I'd never written prose fiction until I joined the site in late 2014. Something to think about.

?Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!
