May / June 2016 Short Story Contest

I'm seeing Five entries in this thread and since RJ is apparently incapacitated maybe we should go ahead and get reading/voting eh?

All the Heavy Lifting - Norm
Succession - Facing
Metal Men - Kenny
Heavy Metal Hell - TheWriterwithNoName
Supernaut - Jon Laidlow

Is that right?

 

[Facing]

Looks good to me. I'd give @Endeavor a few more hours to wake up and post his story. Maybe with a reminder that @JonLaidlow posted his even though he hadn't finished editing it. We can still read for both of them and offer any insights we might have to help improve their stories.

I'm thinking that maybe I'll put up the voting thread in a few more hours if we haven't heard anything from @Endeavor or if we have.... Get this show on the road so we can get on with the next one.

That's ok guys. I really do appreciate your waiting, but work abruptly got in the way. Story is far from even a first draft, like pieces of a puzzle here and there written, probably 3 or 4K words of different scenes, playing with it, but haven't landed the draft yet. I will post when its done, even if outside contest. You're the best guys!
