"A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects." - Robert Heinlein

Two of my entries were selected from the first round. This pleases me greatly becasue it tells me I might have a future in this "writing" thing. As long as I don't have to write anything longer than 140 characters.
You can vote for your favorite Tweet Me a Story story, and I'd appreciate it if you would consider voting for mine. While you are there, C A. Bridges has two story entries in group 15, so give him a check if you would.
My stories chosen were:
A cage is not a trap, the raccoon mused, only the end result. He also mused that he was still stuck. He never could resist peanut butter.
and
Trap your errors, my programming instructor had said. I remembered the lesson with irony because who guessed that a rogue AI was an error.
And you can vote here. Vote early and vote often!
