I’d like to give a special mention as well to Nothing But the Rain by Lucinda Hart, which moved in and out of the top two spots all the way through the voting and missed out on second place by just 2 votes in the end.

That’s it for this month. The next Monthly Micro Fiction competition prompt will be live on the website on 5th August.
