My 50,000 Hit Giveaway

It's that time!

We are coming up on 50,000 hits on my blog, therefore I'm holding a giveaway because I do appreciate your support. Please put your creative minds to work. 

I will be giving away a Kindle with a copy of my first short story, Lethal Injection, The Seed. The winner will be chosen by a public vote on the entries for this 100-word flash fiction contest. 

Rules: 

• You must provide a title (title words do not count toward final word count. 
• Final word count cannot be more than 100 words. 
• You must provide an email address in the format of name (at) provider (dot) com. 
• You must provide title, story and email address in your comment to this blog post. 
• The theme for this contest is The Seed (should not be your title). 

The contest will end when 20 entries are made or on October 21, 2012, whichever occurs first. I will then put up a voting gadget with each entry and invite people to read the entries and vote. I will leave voting up for one week, ending on October 28, 2012. I will then contact the winner who receives the most votes. I hope you will all participate because I look forward to reading your stories!

Contest over! No more voting, sorry.
