Winner: "Smiling as the Sparks Fly Upwards"

It's best not to keep a clever prankster locked in the back room, as Tom showed us in his winning story. He's sure to find a way out, and when he does, sparks will fly.

Half Moose with a Twist!

Congratulations, Tom. We all blinked rapidly at your tale of a robot with a sense of humor.

"The Science of Romance"
 

Tom's muse will appear on January 16th.  We'll welcome in the new year on January 1st with She Writes' muse.

Reminder: "Smiling as the Sparks Fly Upwards"

Dante Alighieri said, “Pride, envy, avarice - these are the sparks that have set on fire the hearts of all men” and women. (OK, we added that part about women, but we’re sure he meant them too, right?) If you haven’t got your creativity blazing yet, throw one of these on the fire, and stand back.



The flood of fun that is the River of Mnemosyne (RoM) is rushing this way. Get out there and bring in some new 10thDoM participants. You can earn points to give yourself a jump start on the rest of the RoM revelers.

"Under the Cover of Time"

You can't change it, you can't own it, you can't control it. You can only waste it, lose it, watch it....perhaps you can bend it or cheat it, but can you hide beneath it? Time to deliberate, and take action... Pattiken has us trying to beat the clock:

Time waits for no man, woman or child, so crack on with it punters...stop wasting it.
