Language.

has anyone ever had their story published if they had the word 'f...' in it. Often strange not to see it - seems appropriate for the content.

Thanks for your question. We're not particularly anti-eff-word. Including it in a story certainly won't count against you.

I didn't really like it. It's monotone and sounds more like a list or scattered ideas. The ideas are fantastic but they aren't arranged in a way to flow together smoothly like they should.

Sad story. A sister is precious...treasure her. My own sister died in a similar fashion, not from lung cancer but from a stroke. I understand the loss.

Interesting story. It seemed a bit long to me so I counted the words and got 541, though the published contest limit is 500. I wonder what the real real contest rules are, or are they just guidelines?

Yeah, I got 541 words too, and I didn't really care for this story at all.

I liked this. It took me to somewhere else entirely for a few minutes. Thank you for that.
