    Wow, thank you for including my story in your guided tour. I'm happy to report that a third chapter of Toutatis Favours the Brave went up just the other day, with a fourth and more in the works. Also congratulations to the competition winners, and I look forward to reading some of the other works detailed here soon.

    All the Best, Welsh Dragon.

    Welsh Dragon, you're very welcome. And I'm very happy to hear there's more of your AAR (and even more planned)!

    A great article, really handy if like me you are useless at keeping an eye on the scene - many thanks for summarising for us.

    Can I book a slot on the next safari?

    No, mad orc, this was not intended to contain only competition winners. It includes other AARs and Creative Writing, chosen from the pieces that had been most recently updated when I wrote it. There are far too many pieces in the WS for me to include all of them!


    Thank you, Shankbot!

    Tickets for the next safari can be obtained from the imps stationed next to the exits.

    Just saw this. Nicely done! Is it to become a regular summary? (Apologies if it already is and I never noticed )

    Want to start this off with: Fantastic job Caillagh! Also, gratitude for the mention of UD!

    Mad Orc@: I hope it has not offended you. But, as Cailagh said, there are way too many Creative Writing pieces and AARS for him to get to them all.

    However, I do want to point something out. We all have perspective and taste. So, stating that people will love a certain story so long as they read it isn't strictly true by any sense. I, for one, hate romance novels.

    I'm just not a romantic.

    But, don't fret too much, my friend. I'm sure your works will get mentioned next time

    Kind regards to you all,

    Tigellinus

    (I completely missed those last two comments till now - sorry about that.)

    Thank you, Admiral Van Tromp, that's very kind. We used to have something similar to this, in blog posts written for us by Merchant of Venice, but it hasn't been something we've done for a while. I'm hoping it will become a regular (or irregular - every so often, even if not at specified regular intervals) feature, although obviously the final say on that rests with Alwyn, as the Critic's Quill Content Director.


    Tigellinus, thank you. You're also very kind. (And you're very welcome for the mention of UD. Having won the most recent MCWC pretty much guaranteed you a mention this time round. )
