A little help, everyone - Part 2 !

Remember long long ago (last week) when I asked for your kind votes to help me get published in the Indireads contest for my story "A Second Chance"? 

Well, here's an unexpected twist. We were allowed two entries in that contest. And both my entries got selected in the final shortlist, as it turns out. (You know where this is leading, right?)

Anyway, last time I may have tried scratching your emotional nerve center with a picture of a kitten begging. That was lame and I apologize for trying to be so manipulative. But wait! What have we here? Is that a really, really adorable puppy literally catching your feet and begging??


I wonder what it's saying? It's a good thing I speak Doggese (let's keep the 'same breed' jokes down to a minimum,eh?) Anyway, what could this cutey-pie be saying?

"Woof. Please vote for Roshan's story called 'Sowing Seeds' at the Indireads contest. 
Just go there and read the story and click the 'Vote' button at the end of the story. 
Woof. For every vote you give me, I get a handful of Pedigree dog food. Woof Woof. 
And a doggy bone as well for every person you share and ask to click the 'Vote' button." 

Aww. What a sweety-pie. Well, I wouldn't ask you to do such a thing myself, but since this fella' asked, how can you possibly say no to him? Think of how happy he will be when he gets the Pedigree dog food he yearns for. All by the click of a single 'VOTE' button.

Good thing I ain't a manipulative dude, huh?
