It has to be Arya Stark as she's still alive.
But I liked Ygritte very much.
This competition is coming to a close...my eyelids and heart are getting heavy.
I'm Sheathing my knifes.
Packing the guns away.
Taking down my bow set and quivering my arrows.
I've recalled the Apache Helicopters and Drones.
The battleships are in port.
And the army of voters have returned - some triumphant.
I would like to thank all my friends and followers and those that have read my story and for that matter, everyone else's story that has been presented - there has been a huge support for this competition and I know my story has broken the CENTURY for votes in some style. It has been an unprecedented response. I would also like to thank friends of special friends that have voted for my story too.
Nicola - this has been a gem of a contest. I won't win because I know, deep down in my battered heart, that browncoffee will win *sob* despite my Melissa's attempts at whoring herself in the board room. But that's life. Ces't La Vie as they say. Slutty Melissa enjoyed herself anyway.
The white flag of peace is flying high on the ramparts....
---Winter is coming---
Thanks to everyone that has voted and commented on Melissa's Office exploits. I am truly blown away by the response. But if anyone that hasn't voted would like to visit and read this raunchy tale then it can be found below.
Thank you one and all.
I would love to get another twenty or so votes for my personal best. Please help me achieve that.
I personally like anything Sci-Fi, humour is also a favourite, and stories that portray the woman as being dominant. Knowing what she wants. Funnily enough - the latter features quite a lot in my own writing - I wonder if I'm doing it right though!?
What Ping wrote is spot on. I won't bother to add to it. There are lots of different types of people here. Those that never reply to a comment post, perhaps they never bother to look once the story is up. Those that never read others stories or comment on them. Those that score but don't comment and those that comment but don't score.
I have taken the viewpoint that if someone comments on my stories i will always reply. Sometimes that has led to conversations. And they, in turn, have led to friendships.
I have learnt a lot from other authors. How they write, what they say and how to be emotional. Theses facets don't always appear in my stories but I learn from them.
In a competition I will always read and score those that have read and scored mine. That is just respect. I do try and read other stories as well but it depends on time and length of stories. I still have a few to go in this competition, but I am hoping to get through all of them and comment and score.
I find it amusing that different people read and comment on different authors. Why don't they read everyone's? I have 424 followers apparently, yet I struggle to get high votes.
A big factor is the throughput of stories. They are being published faster and faster and hence spends less time on the main board. That's a fact of life. Nothing can be done about it.
That's down to the popularity of the site. Nothing to do with notoriety.
