That day has finally came,where I shall post the stories written by LIs' own members. You, the public will vote for the favorite one. The poll shall be public,insha'Allaah. You will have two weeks to vote for your favorite story.
Well I noticed one more person has voted...for Silhouette. Glad to see it take the lead more surely. (To be frank, I didn't even like any of other stories, though there were some things about them that I liked. I hope I haven't offended anyone.)
Peace be to any prophets I may have mentioned above. Praised and exalted be my Maker, if I have mentioned Him. (Come to think of it praise Him anyway.)
i don't care which one wins and whether mine gets the most votes or not. but i'd like to see more ppl vote for whichever they like best. so plz ppl vote. thanks to all who voted.
Thanks to everyone who has voted so far. All of the entries are unique and have their own strengths, and it's very exciting to see which one voters will deem the best.
If we want more people to vote, I suppose we could always put a banner on the forum's front page advertising this thread, like in the very first writing contest two years ago. That is if it's not too late and if there is anyone skilled and generous enough to make one.
That is an interesting idea,I recall the 09 Writing Contest having one of those. But I do believe unfortunately it's too late..But please do vote if you haven't insha'Allaah.
Fourth came Grandpa Woodrow with THE SHAYTAN FACES THE MUSLIM GIRL
And fifth came Sister Muslim Woman with Hajj.
Congratulations to all participants,and sister Muhaba for winning this years contest. I appreciate everyones participation. Insha'Allaah you will get your prizes soon.
I was looking at myself talking to myself and I realized this conversation...I was having with myself looking at myself was a conversation with myself that I needed to have with myself.

Congratulations sister Muhaba!
I really liked the variety this year. Everyone had a different, personal approach to their stories - it's interesting how each entry tells you something about the entrant and their values. Thank you to everyone who voted, especially those who voted for Silhouette.
Also, now the cat's out of the bag, it would be great if those critiques/reviews/any other forms of feedback started coming in.
this is not exactly a critique as all of the stories were very good. Bro. Muezzin summed it up quite well when he said "Everyone had a different, personal approach to their stories - it's interesting how each entry tells you something about the entrant and their values."
I voted for Sister Amat Allah with Fishing Wisdom, as it is a story I could relate to and she did manage to catch the special bond that occurs between a Father and son on their first Fishing trip. I experienced that feeling with my son and the story brought back wonderful memories.
They were all good, congratulations to the winners
It was kinda hard to choose, but I ended up voting for Silhouette. I like it when I can really get into the characters' minds, and this one certainly accomplished that! The twist at the end was pretty brilliant too, I thought.
It was quite obvious (to me :P) who'd written Cyber Lies, Silhouette and the Hajj one from the beginning..others I wasn't so sure about.
