Bit the Dust

"Halloween Watch" (would you take it with that title?) didn't make it into the top 10 of the Necrotic Tissue Bite contest, so I'm out.

BUT...

It made it into the 'Top 12'. OMG! So close. I am gutted, of course. I knew without opening the email that it hadn't made it as there was no attachment. Gutted, gutted, gutted. Great note from one of the editors at the bottom of the email though, I quote:

"There is pulp everywhere" is one of my favourite lines ever... It was just a bit to abstract for our other editors to win our top 10. You were in our top 12.

Well you can't complain about that now can you.

Anyhow, I am going to lengthen it to 150 words and try Alien Skin, and if it fails there I'll post it here on Halloween.
