I feel outraged! Not at the dastardly plot to steal, or the violence shown towards your gloating neighbour, but at the fact this wildly funny story had to share 2nd place behind a lesser offering when it showed a much more creative grasp of what writing is about.

    There, I have to agree, Lisa. That's just what happens on here sometimes. You think outside the box and people look it like it's a littler box. Lol. I really appreciate the gracious stars and kind comments, Lisa. I'm glad you liked my little tale.

Well , when fanstory said creative approaches welcome, you certainly did take them up on the suggestion. Very creative, very clever, very entertaining. I enjoyed reading it.

This piece is an extremely amusing one, that flirts with the subject of writing. The moral I would take home is "forget about fiction, look for interesting snippets in your life and find a good voice to project them with."

Hilarious! This is the best writing I have seen so far. We all need a laugh. I can see all of this "event " happening in my mind's eye. Good luck in the contest!

Your story is so incredibly creative, I love it! The intriguing intro about the competitive neighbor pulled me in, the suspenseful nighttime mission, the violent battle (tackled me like a linebacker, love it)...I found myself rooting for you to steal that flash drive (it's so wrong, I know)!
Even your ending has a creative twist.
Excellent writing.
Best of luck.
(Your neighbor should have never bragged) LOL

Funny and topical. Great description of the scuffle. Great visual too. Might have been interesting if you accidentally killed him and then went on to win the contest :)

    Lol. Yeah, I thought about killing him off but figured that was a bit extreme. Haha. Thank you for the great review and stars, Praveen.

Well in the real world, you would be reading his entry on FS from a cell. You told quite an interesting fiction story for your contest entry, Mystery Author. It flowed well with good descriptions--particularly the fight. You know what they say . . . .'desperate people take desperate measures.' [ I know this is all fiction.] Thanks for sharing and best wishes.

Respectfully, Jan

Dear Mystery Writer,

How nice. Isn't it funny to learn what extremes folks might go to hoping to win a site contest? I totally understand, actually. And I'm not sorry to find that you have evidently eliminated one of the strongest writers here in your midnight dash. Oh, well.

What's very cool is that by sharing your 'confession', now the police will soon be after YOU. Once you are behind bars, that will mean FS has TWO less writers for me to compete with! HUZZAH!

hehehe

A fun post. Well written and a great contender. Good luck!

This work has reached the exceptional level

...display case of numerous writing awards... Haha!! Yes, knock him out with that! Bastard! Haha! LOVE the art on this piece!! This is a great story in so many ways. Love how it ties into this contest perfectly. Your action sequence rolls right along and is very descriptive. This was FUN and I think it will do well in the booth. Pick lock kit. Haha! This entry is worth stealing ;-). Well done! Lynda

    Lol. Yeah, I had to have my guy just happen to own a lock pick kit. Haha. Why not? Thank you so much for the fantastic review and mammoth sixer, Lynda. I couldn't resist, having him taking the guy out with his own writing awards display case. Just to give it that over the top feel. Lol. I dearly appreciate the gracious rating, L. I'm glad you had a chuckle at this silly piece. Have yourself a wonderful day and thank you again.
