njrick:
I'm not embarrassed to have the authorship of a story being guessed between me and any of these fine writers
I hate to admit it but njrick is absolutly right this time, I have read many great stories in the contest and although I can guess only at a few, the quality of the writing in the stories is fantastic, every one who entered the contest should be darn proud of thier work.
We all tease that we hope to win (and of course my story should win) but win or not win all the writers who submitted should be honoured for their work and we all say a big thank you to all of them
