Don't Get Defensive Challenge Winners [Wow, what a lame, unimaginative title]

by THX 0477

Long over-due, I know, but if it’s not painfully obvious by now that I do things in my own time and in my own way…

Winners! Everybody wants to be one. Everybody hates them, secretly despises them, and begrudges them their success. That’s beside the point though.

Fantastic Fun with Fruit goes to The Mysterious Case of the Invisible Strawberries by Russell Rufino cause it was hilarious. I love funny!

Inventive Dialog Trickery goes to Me: Blank by Someday_93, cause I usually don’t like the script style of presenting dialog in a story, but she used it very effective in this piece.

Topical Twister goes to Duct Tape and Plastic by Jenunique for a great take on the challenge and excellent use of writing to point out the folly of society, an important role of art.

Great and Terrible Winner! goes to Dinosaur Dilemma by Ridcully Calvert for being entertaining, well presented, imaginative, pseudo-science and a spot-on answer to the challenge pseudo-criteria.

Thanks to all who entered!

    Great choices for the winners THX ! Those were my favorite entries, as well, especially the last two.

    Wait, I forgot how much I like the first two as well. The invisible strawberries was uproarious.

    Oh no, I missed a challenge! I think this was when I was in Japan and incommunicado. Oh well. There’s always next time. It sounded like a great challenge though.
    LoA
    P.S.) Oh yeah, almost forgot: HAPPY BIRTHDAY ! ;-)

    Thanks soooo so much for giving me something to brag about. Even though I get funny looks from people who haven’t heard me talk non-stop about this wonderful place called Ficlets.

    Wowsers! I almost didn’t enter this challenge, think I read through the briefing about 4 or 5 times without coming up with any decent ideas. Glad I persevered. Being one of the four winners in a challenge you’ve presided over has made me rather chuffed. Thanks.
