And now I'm off to Oberweis (ice cream shop) to celebrate BoB!

LoL, Allison. I love your reaction...you're so cute!

You mentioned you did not see any interview questions, but I sent them via email. Please let me know if you did not receive them. It's possible I had the wrong address.

No, I meant BEFORE the winners were announced. I got it, and have it mostly done... Just going to let it "sit" over night to make sure there's nothing I want to change/add.

[Writetrack]

Awesome. Thanks for letting me know. I look forward to it!

In case anyone is wondering, I am STILL in shock, and still have a silly grin plastered on my face. I even had a silly grin plastered on my face while I was driving to work on a Monday morning! I'm pretty sure that has never happened before, ever. I am still amazed, and thoroughly enjoy the BoB crown.

It's already made it through the church grapevine, via Facebook, I'm guessing A friend of my parents e-mailed them to ask about it, and my dad asked me how he knew. My response was "Uh... probably through someone at church who told him, who found out via Facebook??"

STILL can't quite believe it.

OH! And I'd like to give a really, really big to the judges too!

[Deb Porter]

So happy for you, Allison. Your pleasure in this is a joy. May the news of your win continue to spread!

Love, Deb

I suppose that's somewhat appropriate, seeing as my middle name is Joy.

I may be a little late to chime in on this forum. I didn't see it earlier. I

Congrats to my BoB partners, Allison and Linda.

I wasn't sure what everyone was congratulating me for on FB since I haven't produced anything worthy of even reading lately, let alone winning. I'm praying this jump starts some creativity to get "back at it" again. My "season" of life hasn't been very writer friendly lately. I haven't even maintained my blog very well.

I'd like to thank the judges for "seeing" my story and finding it prize worthy.

Proud to be a BoB.

[Deb Porter]

Congratulations Mari. I thought you were being fairly quiet. LOL.

Love, Deb

Love, Deb

I'm still in awe. I'm very humbled by it all.

My husband had to remind me to tell my mom today when we were visiting. Duh! Sheesh.
