Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on September 15, 2007
- Rewards: Gold: 500, Silver: 200, Bronze: 50, Honorable mention: 7 people
- Final notes: So hard to judge... I can't begin to tell you. Rowan has been pretty tied up so I read her comments but I ended up doing the bulk of the judging so... blame me. I loved all of the finalists. Any one of them could win a contest of mine. But, in the end, I had to put it away for a while and come back to it and see which ones hit me the hardest. This is what I came up with. All very worthy and just brilliant.
And to those that didn't make final cut, they were enjoyed as well. It was tough competition and I can't wait to see who wrote what. Of course, some were obvious but some have me stumped and I can't wait to find out who won the gold because I have no idea...
