The theme for October is the Canterbury Tales, by Geoffrey Chaucer.
Authors are welcome to welcome to introduce aspects of the Tales as they wish; this needn't be a literal interpretation. Judging, as always, will be up to forum members with the suggested criteria of:
1. How unique, interesting and enjoyable was the story?
2. Were the technical aspects (quality of writing) successful?
3. Was the theme used in a way that improved the overall work?
