Please I need the entire Nairaland community to grant me extra period of grace till tonight. Work this week has left me struggling for breath. I have been writing in between meals and traffic. I had to deprive myself of much needed rest to finish up the story overnight. Please give me till tonight to type and upload. Thank you.

Sorry guys, I've been busy and had some difficulties accessing the net where I was. I'm glad the competition has proceeded as planned. I will take time to read up all works now.

Efemena_xy informed me she will be busy within this period; so we've got 7 judges to appraise the final round.

T-flow's request granted. I've been busy myself, and I understand what it means. Its better you requested for more time, we're giving you till midnight as you requested.

Wow, wow, good job to all contestants, honestly, all your stories left me wanting more, like I didn't want it to end. I guess that's how good writing makes one feel.

However, as you know, there will be some corrections but I must say.... I really enjoyed everything I read here ......well some quite more than others.

pity we'll have only one first prize, cos I'm kinda in a little dilemma here. Anyway, I'll sort that out somehow, good one, guys. Well done.

I read Miss Fibre's and I thought I had seen it all. Then I read the rest and was blown away. You all are simply outstanding.
