post in ur comments about all stories and suggestions for the concluding fests.

shocking kismet:true to the title,a no so high-voltage shock though.

spiderman on 29 c:i imagined something else,however got something much better.

killer:a very good thriller,the best climax:just a line.

omen:the best title of the contest

girivalam:nothing else,my favourite.

nallathor veenai:beautiful sense of story-telling,literary composition at zenith.

bingle's:very well told,robust,a bit rib-tickling

grandson's entry:nourishingly emotional,pictursque.

nivaaranam:tale told in its most placid and lucid form.

finished:not bad,not the best.
