That Looks Like A Story

They say that every picture is worth a thousand words, and lately, that's the path my writing has been taking. I see a photo, I get an idea for a story, and I work like the dickens to write it down. My short stories tend toward the scifi, fantasy, and supernatural genres. Tell me what you think of my stories—good, bad, or indifferent—I like to be critiqued.

2006 CNW/FFWA Florida State Writing Competition

Earlier this year I entered the above named writing contest with several of my blogged stories. Today I found out that I received 2nd Honorable Mention for "The Map". Pretty coll. No money, but still nice. I entered in 2004 and received 7th Honorable Mention for "Cool City Limit", so I guess I'm getting better. :-) It's odd, really, since I felt that both stories were somewhat lacking...but I guess I was wrong. With two semi-wins under my belt I think it's time to start submitting to more competitions.
