Write a story or a poem about survival in isolation.  Whether it be a shipwreck on a desert island or a plane-crash in the mountains or a space captain marooning his mutinous crew it matters not anything can happen.  One lone survivor or a hundred; what matters is their adjustment to hostile surroundings.   

Anything can happen on this uncharted territory it could be a barren beach with a lone coconut tree or an island full; dinosaurs, aliens, ancient tombs or tall sexy Amazon women ruled by a femputer.

This was a pretty close contest but a winner has been chosen.

["Leprechaun"]

In honour of St. Patrick's day the theme for the next two weeks is "Leprechaun".  The only guideline is that the story must centre around a Leprechaun or Leprechauns or how a Leprechaun or Leprechauns have affected your main character(s). A Four leaf clover, a Pot of gold at the end of a rainbow, magic beer, lucky charms, these would not be out of place, but they are only suggestions.  What are Leprechauns? Where do they come from? What are their interests with us.. are their intentions good or evil?   

The competition starts right now on(March 17) and runs until 8pm on April 1st.  After which voting begins.  I will be away on vacation for much of the competition. Trophies will be made and rest assured that I will be back on the 1st to resume my duties and start the voting process.

This was a close one, but the people (and fates) have spoken.


Congratulations Kconan you win!

Baron, you were a close second.  Nicely done!
