Your efforts are appreciated sir!

I have (genuinely) completed the first draft of a story which is arguably the best thing I have ever written.

(The above is in no way an attempt to intimidate Moonbus, last year's winner).

Watch out for the new kid on the block. I may be borderline illiterate, but I am sure somebody who has read stuff will tell you of great authors who were as well, possibly, somebody... anybody??

You (with a good few besides) are on my radar sir!

I think this is the kind of competition where everybody has a shot, as it really comes down to a good core idea that is satisfactorily contained withing the 800 words limit.
