Hi Challengeers.

Now that our GOOD and BAD winners have had a little bit of time in the spotlight (congratulations!), it's time to give a cheer to all those who didn't quite make it to the top, but still did very well.

Once again, competition was intense for this topic, so if your entry appears on any of the lists below, then you definitely deserve a pat on the back.

Love, Deb

He actually signed on as Zolgar the Insane...

I have to say I was shocked and thrilled to place sixth on a story I really didn't have a lot of hope for. I got very few comments so I ASSUMED nobody liked it....just goes to show ya!

Congrats to all the winners!
