Creative Contest: Results
by Keira, Textbroker Editor
Authors,
With all of the wonderful entries, it's been very difficult to decide on the best. Our editorial team is proud to announce our favorite stories.
First Place: Cath
Runners-up: A-074749, Content Ox
Honorable Mentions: Benjamin, SsCraig, Stormgod, bumpylight, DawnC, B.K. and A-077122.
Please be on the lookout for an email from me later.
We saw on the forums some mention of a $1000 prize. Unfortunately, Operation Moneybags was only set to initialize if someone managed to write a story with no verbs or adjectives. Because this did not occur, the editors at TB HQ would like to thank all authors as we continue to edit using our new keyboards made entirely of regenerating desserts. TB HQ reminds authors that the misappropriation of funds is frowned upon, and our new edible keyboards are unrelated.
Thank you all for participating!

I've checked this post at least three times to make sure that's really my name on there. :)
Thank you very much!
I loved reading what everybody did with the prompt. Singing veggies, android clerks, the afterlife grocery store, Claire-the-robber.. the imaginative output was staggering. Plus this contest made me start posting on the forums, which my internet-shy self is glad for.
@bumpy, your name is one I am not at all surprised to see on the list. :)added by: author Cath on 07/18/2011 - 10.56
Congrats to Cath. Her entry was my favorite as well.
I KNEW I shouldn't have used that one epithet that had to be edited out ...
Either that or I should have asked around and found out if the TB editors liked to buy overpriced produce at Whole Foods. ::)added by: author Hadding on 07/18/2011 - 11.17
Runner up? Wicked awesome! I'm a noob and this came as a complete surprise to me. Congratulations Cath. Texbroker rules! Whoo-hoo!added by: author Content Ox on 07/19/2011 - 12.20
Congratulations Cath. Now we know that vampire stories are popular with the TB HQ editors. Personally, I'm not into vampire stories but I liked some of the other author entries.added by: author Sora Dina on 07/19/2011 - 11.57
Congratulations to all who did a fine job of using their creativity and to the winners!
I think that I started out well, then I had no time in which to write any more stories without pay, so I hurriedly had a surprise party for Claire~LOL :P Thanks for letting me share.
I would be more into the forums and blogs if I had the time... keep on writing everyone~ All of us Text Broker writers rock! Textbroker rocks too!added by: author A-027766 on 07/20/2011 - 03.05
Congratulations Cath. Your entry completely caught me off guard and I like that surprise element. It was great!added by: author A-038549 on 07/22/2011 - 01.37
