Welcome to Cop-A-Squat’s First Writing Contest!
There is a need for stories with strong morals; morality has been on life support for years.
Our goal is to give the reading public a fresh dose of stories devoid of the normal fare of drugs, sex, and violence. There are other ways to tell stories. And we know there are those who share our sentiments. Storytellers come forward – write a story that will sweep the world.

Have fun and DO YOUR BEST!
By the way, this post is 234 words!
I think this is a great idea Paul. I’ll do some brainstorming to see if I can come up with something. I assume you own this. In any case, I hope you get a lot of participants.
Thank you. Yes I own this. Looking forward to your story.
So the story has to have a moral? Or is that just something you wrote in the beginning for no reason?
What we are not looking for is another sex filled, mindless, violent story for shock value. Write a story that has a point to it. Something that motivates and encourages right behavior. Thus our reference to the need for stories with strong morals. Looking forward to your story.
A tragic ending. I wonder if this is a true story. I would recommend, however, the story be broken up into at least another paragraph for easier reading. Please don’t take this as an insult to the writer.
Good looking out Sonny. I checked her e-mail and the way she originally sent it had paragraphs breaks. Thank you for your close observation and your kind comments.
