Although this month has been a little slow(well, maybe a lot slow) we still had a good number of chrons. Vote, I say, vote! The contenders this month are:

I haven't even read any of them. I don't know any of the authors. Therefore, I haven't voted.

Hey, guess what! There is no new chronicle this week, so you can take that time to sit down and catch up on the March chronicles you missed! Wow, great concept.

And yes, I've read at least one, working on the next during some extra time.

Since no one has voted yet, I'll leave this open until Monday. Read the chrons and vote! None of them are that long. As for myself, I vote for Commodore Antilles' "A Spreading Oak Tree." It really is well written.

I thought that the one about the invisible man wandering around putting runes on things was good. I don't remember which one that was, but it has my vote.

That's the prologue (I believe): Laughter in the Mountains.

Yes, that's the one. Commodore Antilles' "Laughter in the Mountains". It has a real spooky feel to it, and makes me think "who is this guy, and what does he have against this villiage?". Good intro for a story. "A Spreading Oak" was a good one, too, but I liked the spookiness about the invisible creep in the first part.

Looks like it's decided, then. The chronicle of the month for March is A Spreading Oak Tree. Congratulations, Commodore Antilles! The chronicle of the month page is now updated [url="http://"http://www.macclassics.com/cythera/cotm.htm"]here[/url].
