Friends, the 200 plus votes you guys gave me pushed me through to the next round of Broken Pencil's Deathmatch. Please head over there again starting today at noon. Yes, I want your hourly votes, but let me humbly say that the story that my story "You People" is up against—"Moulting" by Madeeha Hashmi—is as nearly perfect a short story as I've ever read. It is an evocation of a new love and great optimism. It has a delicate narrative voice and many carefully crafted details. Please read it. I could give a shit about winning—that's not entirely true—but I love stories. Read "Moulting." Also, check out Hashmi's blog Paper Bags & Napkins. See you over at deathmatch.ca
