This book is a collection of short stories I wrote for writing contests held for fun in the Nightly.net Book Club message board forum, as well as a few spawned from various thoughts and dreams. As the title suggests, these were the best ideas and the best writing I could do at the time for each topic that was suggested for the contests as well as those based on those random ideas and dreams. These are some of the shorter collected stories. All are the best I could do at the time. I hope you enjoy.
