Mine's up. Had to rewrite the last chapter of my novel, Terra Forma, to fit into 750 words. Enjoy!

[Tom]

A very interesting and striking vision, Jot.

[Jot]

Thanks Tom.

Tom, your story really made me laugh! Loved how the images all resolved into those stereotypes.

Great story Jot! One small correction. You wrote "additions" and I'm sure you meant "addictions".

Good stories you two!

[Tom]

Thank you, Justin. 'Glad you enjoyed it.

[Jot]

Whoops. Let me fix that.

[Jot]

Yikes, 2 stories and one day left. Guess everyone is enjoying their summer.

I will have one up today. I'm off from work, so I'm sitting down to do it now.

[Justin]

Thanks Paula! I had the idea but really struggled with getting it into a compact form and making it somewhat believable. I really appreciate it!
