The October/November comment contest winner is: David Sanchez. Congratulations, David!
When I asked David what inspires him to write, he said, "I've been reading as long as I can remember, everything from newspapers, magazines, and ketchup packets. Things I read or hear - be it a random quote in a news article or a lyric in a song - are often a trigger for the stories I develop." Sounds good to me! I'm going to have start paying more attention to ketchup packets, David. Fascinating!
