Fairy Tale Blogfest!

UPDATE:  I'm posting finalists tomorrow.  Not Wednesday.  See you there!  :D

It's here!  The day has finally arrived!  Phew!

To be perfectly honest, when I first posted about the blogfest I was a tad terrified nervous that no one would actually sign up.  When the contestants slowly started piling up, I thought well, at least there will be three winners.  And then one day, you guys just started signing up left and right!  It was wonderfully exciting!  I still can't believe how amazing you all have made this!  Thank you soooooo much for making my first blogfest such a success!

Now, let's recap on how this is going to work:

To view the submitted entries, click here.  I'm going to have to take three days to read them all (sorry, but I don't think I could get through them all today :(  ).  So, on Thursday, I will post my five favorite stories for all of you to vote on.  You'll have a week to vote so that on September 8th we'll finally have our winners!

How exciting!

I will not be commenting on anyone's blog posts for the event.  I just wouldn't be able to find the time to comment on everyone's and I don't want anyone to think I'm playing favorites.  That wouldn't have been the case at all, but when winnings are on the line, I know how antsy people can get.  Well actually, I know how antsy I can get and I just assume everyone is like me.  ;)

To kick the event off, I have also written a story!  I chose to do a micro because I don't want to take away from anyone else's stories.  Plus, I talked these little babies up so much, I decided I might as well do one.


Red Riding Hood, Werewolf Hunter

Some poor fool with an axe lied ripped apart at her feet, his blood running against the soles of her boots.  But with her P90 pressed firmly against her shoulder and a round of shots ringing through her ears, Red watched as the last werewolf died.


Now go get to reading the other great stories out there!  :D
