100 Word Story Contest, Winners of Week Three - "FOOL". Three Terrific Tales.
The Steemit 100 Word Story Contest “Fool” has again produced some fantastic writing.
Congratulations to all who took part. Judging such a contest of quality ... is an occupation fit for a ‘fool’!
Special thanks to @meesterboom for his generous sponsorship of this initiative.
The support of SteemTrail is a constant; huge thanks, guys. We hope that many more will be inspired to "take up the pen" in Week Four which will be announced tomorrow, 3rd April.
The Winners of Week Three
'FOOL'
He was so devious
With behaviour very mischievous
if you ask me he was hideous
the words he spoke seemed meaningless
the way he walked in haughtiness
he come across heartless
withheld his stern grouchiness
never believed in cleanliness
throughout his bossiness
he was never successful in his kindness
stuck in his stubbornness
when it came to others he was careless
despite his hardness
he had a dark sadness
making him in loneliness
it was none he would trust
people viewed him in disgust
he would always be so cruel
he seemed to always ridicule
ultimately he was the fool
"Janet's Question." by @henry-gant
Janet’s question
or:
How I learned to stop listening to Janet and started writing while ignoring her help.
“I'm writing a post about you for Steemit’s 100-words Story Contest, it's called . . .
Janet’s question.”
Janet leaned forward on her elbow . . . her hand now supporting her head, “Why waste words on a title?” She asked.
“It’s not wasting words if it's part of the story,” I responded.
She went full facepalm, “Only a fool like you would waste words on a title," she said.
I leaned forward, “Waste words? . . . let me show you how to waste words on a title.”
The winning stories will be announced each Sunday and published here on steemit and on other Social Media Platforms such as Twitter and Facebook.

Congrats winners! Enjoyed reading them!
They are good aren't they! I am receiving some very kind words from the Short Story Groups I have been finding.
Hi! I don't know if you read my piece. I couldn't set the #100words tag as the first one.
Not much about winning but I was expecting one comment if you read.
Thanks again for the contest.
