Short (11)
« on: December 23, 2010, 07:38:37 PM »
Short stories tend to be less complex than novels. Usually a short story focuses on one incident, has a single plot, a single setting, a small number of characters, and covers a short period of time.

But the simplicity of the short story did nothing to keep these nominees from producing some of the best short stories on Absolute Chaos.

The nominees for Best Short are:

 Party Time by starbeamz2
 Are We There Yet? by Rose
 Lost Without You by kevmylove
 Sweetest Day Sniffles by evergreenwrite r83
 Interrogation by alota_cookin

And the winner is...



Winner: Are We There Yet? by Rose



Runner Up: Sweetest Day Sniffles by evergreenwrite r83

Wait...I won?

I'd like to say thank you, to the challenge itself, and the other entries for that challenge, which was what inspired me to really go old school bus crash horror.  And thanks to whoever nominated me, and everyone who voted! Here's to horribly killing our favorite group! lmao.
