 <title>A new short story</title>
 <link>http://mikespace.net/new_short_story_20090601</link>
 <description>Last week, the results of the writers weekly spring competition was announced.  Sadly, I failed to place, but I don&#039;t feel to sore about it.  The &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.writersweekly.com/contest/spring09winners.html&quot;&gt;winners&lt;/a&gt; were very deserving, and it&#039;s clear I didn&#039;t do enough to make my story stand out from the other entries.

But yesterday, I put up the story online, and you can read it here:

&lt;a href=&quot;/dirty_secret/&quot;&gt;Dirty Secret&lt;/a&gt;

 <title>short story republished</title>
 <link>http://mikespace.net/short_story_republished_20090304</link>
 <description>5 weeks ago, I &lt;a href=&quot;/writing_short_story_24_hours_20090126&quot;&gt;wrote about&lt;/a&gt; the 24 Hour short story competition I entered, and linked to the story I had written.  Rapidly advised that this could disqualify me, I withdrew it ...

... well, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.writersweekly.com/contest/winter09winners.html&quot;&gt;the results&lt;/a&gt; are now in and sadly I didn&#039;t place.  I figure it&#039;s okay to publish my entry now:

&#039;&lt;a href=&quot;/sins_father&quot;&gt;The Sins of the Father&lt;/a&gt;&#039;

 <title>writing a short story in 24 Hours</title>
 <link>http://mikespace.net/writing_short_story_24_hours_20090126</link>
 <description>A few weeks back I received an email from the lovely &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.laraland.org&quot;&gt;lara&lt;/a&gt; suggesting that I enter a 24 hour writing competition.  A quarterly competition run by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.writersweekly.com&quot;&gt;writer&#039;s weekly&lt;/a&gt; it sounded like a fun way of getting the juices going, so I signed up.  As followers of my twitter account will know, the competition was this weekend, and I thought it might be interesting to reflect on it whilst it was still fresh in my head.
