Mine was Something Devilish, written in two evenings and edited down to (a wrongly counted it seems) 666 words in a third evening.
The three evenings seemed to account for four bottles of red wine???
I think we need to do one of theesh eventsh again ... (hic) ... 'twas great fun.
Thanks to everyone who voted for my story and well done to Gatecrasher - nice double there.
The tricky part for me was getting what I wanted said into just 666 words (so tricky - and I blame the third bottle here - that I got the count hopelessly wrong anyway). It's a very short time to introduce characters, establish any plot and still get anything meaningful across.
Good work all and I look forward to the next one(s).

Congrats to all the winners!
Thanks for putting this together, CFT. Hopefully next time I'll get something put together in time.
