Excellent challenge this month! Loved the stories; and a big thanks to ratsy for hosting!

So, right to it...here are my lists:

Semi-finalists:
When Hopes Die, Perspectives, If at First You Don't Succeed.... Fine stories, all.

Finalists:

I thought Star Struck was amazing...it was a great, and very of-the-moment example of obsession.
But wow, when I read Walk to the Park, I knew my own little entry was beaten. It's a truly moving, lovely story. My vote went to this gem. Well done!

Now for my errors..er, guesses.

I think this time I'll take make my deductions using chaos theory. I can't go any lower than my usual zero.

All I need to do now is find an amazonian butterfly and teach it to type.
