Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on January 12, 2008
  • Rewards: Gold: 500, Silver: 200, Bronze: 100, Honorable mention: 5 people
  • Final notes:
    This Contest was much harder than I had thought it would be. It actually yet shockingly didn't bring me to tears as the pic image used to do when I once had strong loving feelings for a certain guy whom I found out he didn't have them for me like I had thought. There were sooooo many grand writes -more than I had expected I would receive. It was a hard decision to make and I hope NOONE is ever disgruntled by any decisions made. I bid each one of you many loving blessings xxx

    Wow

    What a great idea for a contest! I feel exactly like what that quote says! I am in love with this guy and I make myself so readily available for him but he is never there for me

    Thank you for the Gold. I know it had to be a tough decision to make, since there were so many wonderful writers entered and permit me to say, 'Congratulations to all the winners!' You are all winners in my book! Thanks again. Love and hugs...

    m2, I want to thank you for hosting this wonderful contest and for the Honorable Mention that you gave to me. The picture you chose was quite inspirational and it got me to attempt my first swap quatrain. My heartiest congratulations goes out to the other winners and all who participated here. Everyone should take a bow for their work. Love and God bless all of you, Joyce
