I've saved them in Hotmail draft, but I think Hotmail's been hacked by Annonymous!

Well done Q! :clap: :clap:

I was just about to do the exact same thing - but not as nicely as you did it.
Totally agree with your figures. :dance:

Took some doing. It was scrolling up and down the posts that was most taxing. I highly recommend it to insomniacs: better than counting shwdsgbfvhbzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz....

Probably a shot in the dark, but maybe Pip has stories in C and H. :|

Missed E but i don't have a story in C H or E

 

[pip]

E is looking crazy though . I found it very hard to pick from

 

[Jan Van Quirm]

Just got on :angelic-halofell: Brain no work yet...

Will update the word doc for us with the full works later tonight

On the very first post on this thread, there's a link to the Drabble page and you can read Terry Pratchett's 100-word story, Incubust.

To highlight the incredible quality of all your stories, if "Incubust" was entered in this competition, I honestly don't think it would win. :clap: :clap:

I don't think the Asimov one would win either. (I might secretly post it at a later date so you can see :twisted: )

As a prize for the winner, I think I might buy "Drabble Who" - the third Drabble book, and send it to the winner.
I'll go and check on prices now. :dance:

 

[poohcarrot]

Oh! Drabble Who is out of print and Abe don't have any copies.

But I could maybe get hold of Drabble II - Double century! :ugeek:
