January '21 Flash Voting Thread

[R.J.]

Alright, January is almost over and done with, time to read and vote for this month's flash entries!
Behold:

The Wolf Shows No Mercy by Trollheart
Uncle Gil by Matt H.
The Hunting Pack by Sea Serpent
Twister by txshusker
Apex by Hannah Hulbert
Wolves in the Mist by R.J.

Vote for your favorite of the month - setting the poll to 4 days (since this thread comes up a dayish late).

 

[Trollheart]

Hey! Where the bleep is my story????

 

[R.J.]

I put this up hastily, forgive and I shalt fix.
I'm on my phone right now and it just won't let me link your story, will do so when I get back home. The timing of which depends on how fast I can find an adequate birthday present for my heir.

[Hobbit]

Link fixed: extraneous entries removed (and hopefully above adequate birthday present sorted).

Best of luck to all!

 

[R.J.]

Thank you, master hobbit It took a while longer than I had hoped for but more than adequate present is in the house and now all is well

 

[Hannah Hulbert]

It's your birthday today @R.J. ?! Many happy returns!

 

[R.J.]

Well, no It's my oldest son who turns fifteen on Sunday. But I'll take it anyway, it's my turn in a couple of weeks, so thanks ^^

 

[Hannah Hulbert]

Tough choice! I voted for RJ, but Sea Serpent was my second choice

 

[R.J.]

Per usual it's a hard choice. I liked every story tbh for various reasons. Thanks to all of you then for providing solid flashes this month. I vote for Uncle Gil. I knew I should have gone with "5 votes per voter"

 

[Sea Serpent]

You're making me choose only one? That's tough! So I've had to go with Trollheart but there's such a wonderful variety this month!

 

[Matt H.]

Voted for Hannah's Apex. It just had those real-world touches that gave it a sense of actuality, and like I mentioned has a Walter Mitty vibe. Seems a pretty simple basic plot, but it works.

 

[HESH]

I have to go with Trollhearts. Obvious bias there!

 

[Trollheart]

Went for Matt's story. It's so Stephen King I just had to. Very cool indeed.

 

[Trollheart]

Congratulations Matt! Long time coming!

 

[Matt H.]

Cant' decide if I want to go with "I'd like to thank the academy..." or "I'm ready for my close-up Mr. Demille"

Who was the mystery vote? No matter, will set up next contest today.

 

[R.J.]

Congratulations Matt. Well deserved

 

[txshusker]

Nice, everyone. Thank you. Well done, Matt.

 

[Matt H.]

And thar she hopefully doesn't blow... lol: Transformation

 

[Sea Serpent]

Well done Matt!!!
