The Challenge winners will be posted here two weeks after entries close for each topic, and the Highest Ranked entries will be posted sometime later that day or the next.

My thoughts, exactly. I told her how much I liked her entry and then worried I had jinxed it. Not that I really believe in that sort of thing, but I was relieved and thrilled to see her name at the TOP!

All I have to say about that is AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!
CONGRATULATIONS EVERYONE!
I've had my elderly mother-in-law visiting and other events happening so I didn't read as many as I wanted. (Plus, I have to admit I was hesitant about reading so many sad stories.) Since I don't have an entry to write, I'll try to read some more this week.
WOW...I'm staring at the screen and still can't believe I got 1st place! I had a good feeling about Carry Me, but never believed it would actually place. Praise God!!!!
Congratulations to EVERYONE...We are ALL winners because we're doing God's work! I'm new to FW and already in love. What a great group of people...I thank God that I found you!
A GREAT BIG THANKS to everyone who read my entry and left such touching comments. They mean more than you'll ever know!
I hope to get to know you all better in the future.
Hooray! I was tickled to see "Peggy's Funeral" do well--it was inspired by my actual sister-in-law's funeral at which a lady stood up and....YODELED!
A huge thanks to the judges. And I will testify that although Deb has been here for two days, and has known the results ever since she got here, she never breathed a word. But this morning, at 9:01, she caught me still in my pajamas and said, "Have you checked the results yet? You really need to check those results now..."
I thought, "Hmmmmm....."

You may stay until you get a 1st, 2nd, or 3rd...pretty soon!

Big smiles reading the lists! Congrats Joanne, Seema, Kristin, Trevas, Dee, etc etc I'm sorry if I didn't mention you by name - I'm so HAPPY for you all!
Congratulations to all the winners! This was a tough week to stand out, so extra kudos to all of you! And of course, excellent job to those who didn't place but still touched hearts - I don't see how the judges do it!
Seema, I'm so happy for you. Your story was perfect. I really do hope you expand it, and let me read it!
Kristen - goodness gracious! Masters already. Be 'confident' about moving up, and don't be 'embarrassed' about taking first place so often. This is a 'happy' time, enjoy it!

Thank you. I am hardly confident, but I am happy. What I really fear is being embarrassed by some grammar error or misuse of a word. That would make me sad! I look up to you people in masters. But I seriously don't think anyone should be looking up to me as an example for writing! I am still learning.
