Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on November 16, 2008
  • Rewards: Gold: 300, Silver: 150, Bronze: 50, Honorable mention: 5 people
  • Final notes:
    I must admit, you all surprised me! I am very impressed with the different takes on the prompts. I hope you have read the other entries because each one is great. I hate that hosts are now limited to the number of HM's they can give. I appreciate everyone of you for writing for my contest. I hafta say too that the Gold entry touched me very deeply. Silver and Bronze were incredible as well.

    I hope you all know that no matter what, we are an important member of the human race. Flawed or not, we count and deserve to be treated with respect, even when we aren't.
