Having said that, one of the main reasons I enter this competition is because everything submitted gets feedback and mine told me one important thing: the standard of thes stories in my group must have been exceptional, because the most damning criticism was that some of the facts in my story were vague to outsiders. By clarifying these facts, my story would have done much better.
I consider that to be exceptionally positive feedback. I can't wait to find and read the other stories from the group.
Anyway, I'm still waiting to hear back on the Short Story comp and I have another one lined up for this month. I just need to turn this idea into words. It's not often I get to put the words armillary sphere into a story.
