Gotta give a special shout-out to Sonya Leigh, very new to the Challenge and already making a huge impression, and to Steve Fritchen, tops in Beginners in only his 2nd (I think) entry.

Way to go, new people!

Cleo, the Editor's Choice entries are those that received the top 10 scores (regardless of level). These are eventually compiled into a book that has the "theme" of the quarter.

Congratulations, all!

I really was surprised to see my name up there this morning. I wasn't that crazy about my entry for this one, but it was the only idea I came up with.

Oh wow! This is my first chance today to check the results and post anything. I've been away from the Challenge working on some other writing projects and fixing up my house. What a welcome home.

Congratulations to the other winners. I'm honored to be up there with you all.

When I saw the USA topic I knew I had to write this story. Real questions based loosely (very loosely) on some actual events.
