#WEPff winners for the October HALLOWEEN/CONSTELLATIONS challenge! Please pop in and say congratulations!

Hello Everyone!

Thanks to all who participated during the 2016 October HALLOWEEN/CONSTELLATIONS WEP challenge. Some of you couldn't take part. A special mention to Elephant's Child who I think commented on every entry, encouraging those who were able to post when she was unable. Thank you, Sue. We need both readers and writers.

The entries were wonderful and varied: flash fiction, poetry (some sharing poetry written in childhood), artwork and non-fiction. Obviously we love writing about Halloween, especially, and there were some truly creepy stories. Some responded to the Constellations theme, and some of you challenged yourself and combined both.  If you haven't read all the entries, use the DL links on the previous post.

And once again, we thank Olga Godim for her excellent badges for the challenge and the creativity she has shown in making the winners' badges!

We value each and every entry submitted to WEP, but there is the excruciating choice of choosing just one winner amongst the many of winning quality. It's always hard, especially when there is a spread of genre. Nevertheless, decisions have to be made, and after much emailing between the judges, we have chosen:

  

THE WINNER OF THE

2016 WEP October HALLOWEEN/CONSTELLATIONS CHALLENGE IS:

Patrick Hatt!

for his flash fiction from the point of view of a 'crazy old bat': All Hallows Sky, where he masterfully combined both prompts. If you haven't read it already, pop by the link in Pat's name above.

Congratulations Pat!

Please accept the winner's badge and display on your blog with a link to your excellent story.
