2021 Prose contest Topic

If all who took part in the poll up to now will write a piece it will be the biggest field of authors in the history of the competition.

I am soooo confused, but I did have a loooong "chat" with a friend on RHP last night that also happened to involve some "drink" so please excuse this question if the answer is obvious....Is there now a topic?

@Great-Big-Stees
No. There will be a post tomorrow after the polls will have closed and some corrections will have been applied.

I feel murder mystery is more of a writer's topic, some of the others anyone could have a fair shot at.

Top 3 put into a new poll? 😅

The 5 points vote for hobnobs, that's was me, wanted to see how the poll was going so you can chalk that off, not that it was ever going to matter.

Blimey. When I suggested murder mystery I didn't think it through.

That is ok, you do that on a regular basis say things without thinking it through. 😉

Then again you could be bluffing and already have a story ready to go! 😉

My late addition travel gave it a good run, basically we need to write a murder mystery and involves travel 😉

Ever read Trail of the Dead by Jon Evans? Great book.
