H, I have posted a story as asked. I'm not sure if I have done everything you wanted - I didn't tell it to 'review' - but the story is there in my pf: 'GW Last Stand: The Words', so please make use of it if you wish. If you decide to use it, I'd be glad of the chance to put my own name to it.
Good luck with all your efforts. EVERYBODY should have to answer to people for their actions, and not expect stupid spin to be mindlessly accepted.

I think I've now managed to make it appear in the right place with the others.

Thanks Nicky,
agree with your wise words, and I will see what I can do to use your most welcome offering as soon I get back from a visit.
I will obviously put your name at the bottom of the page, and all work will be left on site at the end unless the owner requests that it be taken off.
But despite many home grown attempts to see us off, we aint dead yet.
I hope to publish the front page on Non Fiction quite soon, it is finished, but a bit tricky.

Didn't make myself clear. My real name is not Nicky Richfield. What I was saying is, IF my story gets chosen to go in the final five, could you please let me know so that my real name, not my nickname, goes with it.

Yes Nicky I did realise that, and no problem, it is going in the book, the problem was I had already done it for you and I had difficulty deleting because it was on twice.
It needs paragraphing and colouring to match our ideas, is that OK.? favourite colour?
Put your chosen name on it at the last minute, I am trying to get Time Traveller to contribute and there is a very good chance that he will put our front page on review at six pm today.
I advise you, get your scanner and best paper ready to copy and print, the copywrite is available to all members who have contributed, and if we fail to get it on GW it will also be posted on the anneymouse site.
Penjen and the others are back today and I hope to hand over this organisation job, I prefer ananimity, I have had enough and Chris is not well either.
Thanks again for the contribution,
Cheers H.

Hi there, H.
Sorry you were having problems. And thank you for choosing my flash for the collection.
The story was already paragraphed but the formatting didn't carry over when I cut-and-pasted it onto GW. I've now edited it to show the breaks more clearly. In 12-point Times New Roman, it fitted onto an A4 page like this.
I've also added my name.
Don't quite understand about 'coloured' - could be the colour of letters on a white background, or black letters on a background of this colour. If the former, I would choose a dark green, if the latter, a pale green.
Do you want the votes you have mentioned on the pieces submitted up till now, or would you rather we waited to see if there are more entries in the rest of today?

Thanks Nicky,
We have coloured some of the print dark green it looks great, by suiting the colour to the work or the person, the impact is good.
Also we have chosen 12 point New Roman, for those pieces that we are tidying up as best we can.
Actually that is why I asked permission to use the work as I wished, no other reaon at all.
I was weighing up the best print colour for your work, guess what! how about racing green? on white background.
I am trying to establish a thread so that members can tag on and leave details not too personal obviously, but informing us of the work that they have contributed in any way at all so that none gets overllooked.
I do not care how old they are or how experienced ,all entries will be considered so long as I can find them.
Extra marks are for effort or disability, and also for contacting us from abroad.
Cheers H.
