OKAY PLEASE READ THIS BECAUSE IT IS A LITTLE BIT IMPORTANT TO ME
Okay holy shit I done gone an did a fool thing and entered a contest. What's worse, I made it to the next round of a contest, and that is where you come in.
"I’ve participated in a contest called “Tweet Me A Story,” where participants are challenged to write 140-character-or-less stories based on a provided term. The first round of the judging is over, and two of my stories have made it to the finals in my category!
Starting June 2nd at 9am Eastern, the finalists are put up for an audience vote, and the top vote-getters advance to a grand-championship round. Here’s where you can read the top 15 stories in my category and vote for your favorite!"
The thing is, the above passage was written by Dave Fucking Malki! one of my all time heroes, and yet it ALSO DIRECTLY APPLIES TO ME BECAUSE I GOT THE SAME RESULT IN A CONTEST AS DAVE FUCKING MALKI!
I didn't even know he was in this contest! I'm freaking out!
For those who don't feel like clicking the link and voting (please please please!) here are my two that made it to this round (the provided word was "secret"):
-----
Stormy night. Experimenting. Accident! Entire perspective on existence changed. New life. New self. Power. New everything. Identity? Secret.

Wearing her smile like a child's secret, she slowly dragged each nail across his desk. "My husband is missing. But that's not why I'm here."
-----
OKAY I KNOW I AM A TERRIBLE PERSON AND I FEEL SO VAIN AND ARROGANT AND LIKE A WHORE BUT PLEASE VOTE FOR ME I LOVE YOU FOREVER.
Also just so I feel like less of an arrogant prick, please tell me in the comments of this post how you are doing! It has been so long since you and I have spoken.
