Thank you to all who read mine, and congratulations to Wordsmith and AmuseBouche! Amazing stories, and I'm humbled to even be considered among such talented writers.

And congrstulations to everyone; wherever you ended up, someone loved your work. My favorite wasn't even among the top 10.

Well, you know what they say; Write what you know.

I'm joking, of course. I've never been in exactly that situation...

😬

Seriously, thank you all for your incredibly kind words!

Oh, wow. I don't even know what to say. I feel like Sally Field at the Oscars right now. 🥹

Thanks so much, everyone.
