My mind has become a vacuum, A cavity of confusing resonance.
Admittedly, murder mysteries are not my strong suit. Outside of Sherlock, I've read very few.
But, there's opportunity for a little integration I think. We'll see. πŸ™‚
Me too.

I know my limitations, I'm not even starting a story this time.

If you just explain how it came that the saxophonist was poisoned you have a great story and everybody will assume it is mine. Just add a hard German Akzent
As a sax player, I know the answer to this one! (Maniacal laughter)


Maybe have the stories give clues and the readers say who committed the crime?
Like a game of clue?

You might find one of the writers does that anyway, but too late now to make that a condition of entry. Some stories have already been submitted.

Are you submitting again this year? (As always, you'll be the first to vote). πŸ™‚


You don't know me! 😑

I'm thinking about it πŸ€”

Yes. All humans with a nose have the ability to smell.

Are you planning to write a story?

Edit: Ah, saw your post. 1000 words is indeed a challenge in this genre.


Possibly.
If I come up with something clever.

Just completed my story, but will tidy it up a bit before submitting.

It's a good one. πŸ™‚
Mopping up blood stains, eh ?

There is nothing like a good, old-fashioned whodunnit crime story... πŸ™‚
