Free fiction! Top notch! Ichiban!
I’ve posted my entry to Microsoar’s Reboot Contest. Dean posted his story a while ago. There you go, folks, two top notch stories, free of charge.
The contest remains open until Midnight on the 31st. Join the crowd!
Live-blogging tonight, 7 PM PST.

Thanks, Doug! I like it lots.
The direct link to your entry as a page rather than as a comment is:
Right Here! Enjoy, everybody.
PS: Let’s make this at least a 3-cornered contest, someone!
It’s interesting how we both explored the darker side of the premise.
I happen to think that the premise IS dark. It’s difficult for me to see how being stalled in 2006-2008 would be a positive thing.
I can think of one positive – a dying child. As long as they didn’t actually die before the end of ’08, you’d never lose them.
Hmm. Yet there would be no end to the child’s suffering. Death isn’t always the enemy.
Darker still, eh? 😉
I considered that. It would have to be something relatively painless like leukemia (which, I know, is highly treatable, but it’s not 100% – and we are talking fiction here). Knowing you only had 2 years with your child, think how much enjoyment you could get out of living through them over and over.
Love the part about the pastry dots…
