Including second prize to my friend Hugh, an honourable mention to Debby Gies – (my friend, and Sister of the Fey.) and this highly entertaining lovely chap – Geoff Le Pard also had an honourable mention.
I didn’t win but this is my entry:
Goldilocks Hates Chocolate
Goldilocks was due to arrive at any moment. Little bear kept a look-out for papa bear and mama bear hoping that they wouldn’t return too early from their leisurely morning walk.
Goldilocks sauntered in and handed little bear a huge chocolate croissant which he ate down greedily.
Goldie sat on the floor and tucked in to little bear’s bowl of steaming porridge.
‘Ugh, how can you eat that muck, Goldie?’
‘It’s yummy. I hate chocolate and sweet things.’
‘With a name like Goldilocks it’s no wonder you’re weird. Porridge reminds me of sticky snot.’
‘Rubbish, it’s mighty gold-i-delicious gunk!’

I’m a contributing author in the Plaisted Publishing House Ghostly Writes Anthology 2018 with my story Ghostly Goodbye.
Ghostly Goodbye by M J Mallon
Ghostly Goodbye is a paranormal love story about a young woman called Iris who can’t get over her husband’s death. She is mourning him so much that she feels dead inside. Her husband Ed sends her a ghostly message from beyond the grave via an old forgotten garment in her wardrobe. She responds by dragging herself from her tomb-like bed and he draws back the curtain of death to visit her in a most unusual way.

Thanks for sharing your entry to this contest, Marje. Goldilocks seems to have been a popular choice amongst those who entered the contest. I was shocked to see my entry taking second place, but had great fun writing it.
Have a lovely weekend.
Hugh 🎄
Well done Hugh. Loved your story. Hope you have a lovely weekend too. 🙂
