2 Additional Winners in the 10-Word Tick Competition! (my apology)

This is embarrassing, but there are actually 2 more first-place winners that I had not been able to read properly, as I’m working from on a train and the internet is terrible so they weren’t loading! Please accept my apologies. I’m calling it a 3-way tie for first place! The winners are Dave Alcock (from the previous post), Kathryn Silver-Hajo, and Karen Crawford! Read the 2 additional winning stories below. Kathryn Silver-Hajo’s story wins for her fantastic title and funny story and Karen Crawford wins for the humor and pathos.
