So, now that all is said and done, I have an important question to ask ya'll:
Which stories did you like the most?
Your top three favorites would be appreciated, cause then I can figure out which ones to polish and maybe publish.
If you haven't read em all, then just out of the ones you've read is just as cool.
Here's a list of the stories, excluding the ones about Ben and Alex:

Miraculous Recovery
The Chest
Predator Prey Relationships
This Changing Road
Phil's Rage
Never Eat Wild Mushrooms
In the Grass
Sorry, Wrong Order
Sick at Heart
Black Dog in Black Night
Instant Potatoes
Belief
It Was Only a Dream
Cold Morning
Polished Till It Shines
On the Bus
Eclipse

And I've been considering continuing the story of Alex and Ben. We'll see though. Little burned out right now.
And remember: Your top three favorites in the comments section and I'll be your best friend for life.
Dylan

I liked the quirky, goofiness of Instant Potatoes, the creepiness of The Chest, and the all around awesomness of Belief, so they're my top 3 out of the ones I've read so far.

Do you have any good suggestions for where you can try to get short stories published? I won that Halloween writing contest, and I've been getting a lot of good comments on my writing recently, I wouldn't mind trying to get some of my stories published. And magazines, websites, etc. you know of would be greatly appreciated.

@CheckieEatsOrganicPoptarts -

I had a subscription to the Writer's Market website back when I had money to burn, but there are free options out there, to help you find places to send things.
I use this site here: http://www.duotrope.com/index.aspx
Just plug in the genre you prefer and any number of other options, and it'll give you a list of places to go. It should be enough to get ya started.

I thought The Chest, Instant Potatoes, and Polished Till It Shines were the best 3.

In some sort of order...Belief, Never Eat Wild Mushrooms, and The Chest/Predator Prey Relationships. Yes, there are four. No, I won't choose between the last two.

@Eliminate_the_Impossible - thanks. I just checked out that site and I found a couple of places I want to submit to. Now I just need to go through all my stories and pick the ones I think are the best/most appropriate.

my favorite three were Miraculous Recovery, Sick at Heart, and Polished til it Shines. Thanks for the entertainment this month!

Instant Potatoes for sure! And the one with the not really sick kid. I didn't catch the beginning of Ben & Alex, so I was not really in the loop on that. Didn't really spark my interest all that much.

Never eat wild mushrooms, sorry wrong order, and polish till it shines. I'm tellin you. Those three were the best. I loved them so much. They creeped me out, and that's really hard to do. Cause I'm not easily scared, and those three scared me really bad. Great job and can't wat for next ear if you do it again!
