Oh my word thank you so much! I really wasn't sure if it was interdimensional enough but I am so glad you liked it. Very tough competition as well, I feel honoured 😊
The prompt for this round is fantastic! I can't wait to get started. It reminds me of a space opera I started and never got very far with many years ago, I am looking forward to trying something fresh for this but if I can dig out where I saved it, I will have to post it for you. Everything but pink long johns, even a far amount of interdimensional travel! It is literally just the development of the characters that would have become the space pirate crew, but that was half the fun, so it will be great to come out with some new ones!
:D
Awesome thanks - already mulling my entry for this one. The prompts are fantastic 😂
:D
Thank you I am glad you liked my story it was difficult but really fun for me to do it because the English language it'snt my main language ( I am from Venezuela) I will participate in the next contest. Steem on!
Apparently this one inspired some high space opera! Here you go:
