Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on November 20, 2007
  • Rewards: Gold: 200, Silver: 100, Bronze: 75, Honorable mention: 12 people
  • Final notes:
    ALright.

    This was sooo hard to judge.

    If you won an HM, that means you made me cry or come close to it. There were a LOT of stories here that were amazing, but just weren't sad enough to win. I hope that makes sense.

    For third place I had two that I really wanted to win: the bronze winner and the poet of Four Poems. It was VERY hard for me to decide. But there yah go. I finally chose.

    Thank you all for the great entries.

    PS: I'm sorry, I didn't COMMENT on every entry, though I assure you each was read at least twice. If you'd like me to comment now, I would surely be willing to do that Just send me a PM! Thanks so much, everyone!

    Questions

    1)Can we enter more than once? 2)I have a saturation research paper that made me cry as I wrote it. It is from the point of view of Terri Irwin the day that steve died. Would you take that?

    I don't know if my story is very sad, I certainly was teary when I wrote it, but then again it is about me. I was wondering if we can enter two entries, as I have a second I think is pretty sad. I also wanted to apologize because my story is a little over the 1000 word limit, but not very much.

    Okay guys.

    54 stupid words I wanted you to read before you entered.

    5 of them saying, excatly,

    "No erotica," and "No adult categories."

    And I still get erotica and adult categories!?

    How lazy could someone be! Or they just want to be DQed.

    *shake my head ashamedly* Poor Barbara.
