[grindan]

Thank you very much for the prize!

My pick for this round is:

“It’s nice to try new things,” said the voice. It sounded like it came from a hidden speaker.

Persi was such a trip (well still is) as she is introduced. Disorienting, a solid dose of creepy, and very entertaining! Well done 😁 it's always exciting when the context of the book name comes into view! !PIZZA !LOLZ !LUV

The second list of accounts looks... broken.

Ecency / Hive / something must've had a hard time with the spacing characters in there... (copied from Excel). When I published and previewed they were fine... then SPLAT. Hopefully fixed now, thanks for pointing that out!

[gwajnberg]

I havent have good luck in here lol
so

“Shoulda brought more beer,” said Fergus, and yawned. He started to hum In The Hall Of The Mountain King as we came across a door with a peeling five painted on it. It groaned open and the now-familiar arrangement of offices and empty fire extinguisher holes greeted us.

this part maybe inspired by a LOTR episode? Lol

[emaxisonline]

The girl, who looked like a normal young woman, watched, unconcerned. She walked towards us, and as she did, the lights above her buzzed and sputtered to life.

This line pumped up some scary thoughts while moving to next para, what possibly could happen it's about to reveal in upcoming episode.

Well done bro.

"I felt something tickle at the base of my spine, somehow very sure that this book was not okay, that I shouldn’t be touching it. But I couldn’t help paging through it, hoping to find something. It was empty, every last bit of it."

Thanks for sharing. Loved the last cliff hanger!

We climbed a flight, not knowing what else to do, and stared at the door. It should have had a two on it. But of course, it was a five.

Looking forward to the next part. !PIZZA

[herman-german]

Hopefully I have more luck this time :)

[henruc]

Except the humming continued. His voice—not an echo at all—came from around the corner of the hall. He slapped his hand over his mouth. Dack lifted the light even higher, revealing nothing but the bend. The humming went on.

count me in

thanks

Thank you very much for the giveaway and good luck to all the participants.I want to participate @yeckingo1

[wrestlingdesires]

Deluxe ran back in with my laptop, free of Lobster the ball python. I made a mental note that there was likely a loose snake in the kitchen.

I wonder how she keeps them all from killing each other??? What a fun place to live though 🙌

[pero82]

Thank you so much for the tokens ❤️

“There’s something…” That pressing feeling crawled all over. Dack angled the light up so we could see more of the hall, but it was empty.

Count me in for the giveaway!

[slothlydoesit]

Awesome! Thanks for the prize, and congrats to all the other winners!

I'm all over this again, loving the story!

There was no alley. It was a hallway, and that girl leaned against the wall across from us, arms folded. Fergus shut the door and stared at it.

Sh*ts getting interesting! I can imagine the confusion on their faces, things are starting to turn very creepy! Can't wait to see what happens next!

[jfuji]

Haha you're welcome and thank you for diving in! Prize sent :)

[leemah1]

I stormed forward, and snatched the light from Dack’s hand. My plan, I think, was to round the corner and bash Willy’s face in with the blocky torch. Get it over with, and fast, because this was getting foolish now and I was tired, mad, and scared.

[twicejoy]

We climbed a flight, not knowing what else to do, and stared at the door. It should have had a two on it. But of course, it was a five.

[jonimarqu]

My friends raced over and stood behind me.

Thank you, man 🤓

[jfuji]

No problem! Prizes sent :)

[joseal2020]

My line favorite is:

“How ‘bout say the magic word,” said Fergus.

“What magic word?”

“Wifi,” said Deluxe.

“You want me to say wifi? What good—”

We heard the clock crunch, then it began to tick.

@joseal2020

[allonyx.ngs]

this is my favorite part

“Alright girl genius, you can rig up a phone to automatically run your hobbies, can you get this blasted wifi to work?” I spun my computer around at her. She cracked her knuckles and began to poke at it while I scanned the rest of the cafe, trying to see if anyone else was struggling. It was only us, two little old ladies and a dude reading a book. I scoped out the title because I like to judge people based on the covers of the books they read. It was called The Secret to Living. Self improvement, most likely. I awarded the stranger some preliminary points.

have some !PIZZA , stay !ALIVE and writing.

[thoth442]

Just finished 1-4; excellent, and really have a feeling that the adventure is starting. This dialogue was so great:

“The world has funny little holes in it, you know.”
“I wish they’d go away.”
“Now that’d be no fun,” she said. “Don’t you want to see where they go?”
