Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on March 18, 2007
- Rewards: Gold: 300
- Final notes: Thank you to everyone who entered. I did not know what to expect when i posted it and i have been alternately pleased/amused/dumbfounded!
I apologise for the time it has taken to judge - more entries than i usually get which was lovely. I was disappointed at the number of entries that had not been proof read or spell checked which became a frustration in the end!
I have blind judged - and this time it has been hard to know the voices unlike previous contests where i probably could guess!
