It’s been a long time…

…since I won a fighting competition. I think the last time was before my first daughter was born. It was a local Karate tournament, and I took 1st place in my division (& totally ruined a buddy’s perfect undefeated season Smile with tongue out ).

Well, I did it again, although this time it was a very different sort of fighting contest. It was Alan Baxter’s written fight tournament. My entry was an edited fight scene from Pride of the Traveller. I’ve been giving myself high-fives all morning.

Anyway, go check it out on Alan’s site:

Well done! I liked that story when I read it originally. I think it’s awesome you won! …and I had no idea you were into the martial arts. I was too, once upon a yesteryear. Mine was Isshyn Ryu. What’s yours?

Way to go! *high fives* Congratulations on winning the tourney!

I had no idea you were into the martial arts either – the things you learn from blogs. :)

I took Kenpo Karate. I was never that into forms, but I loved sparring. My Brother’s into jiu jistsu now, though, and he’s got a space for grappling in his basement. When I get the time, I may try that out. Also, if there were a cheap boxing gym around here I might consider that. Maybe I just need to start my own underground fight club…
