Congratulations everyone!

& Shann Hall-reallylonglastname!

Ain't that the truth! It still takes my breath away whenever I see Shann's name anywhere.

A big congratulations to all those who placed or made it into the highest rankings. The judges were all agreed that this was a VERY tough topic (surprisingly so). To be honest, if you rose to the Challenge and entered, then you are a winner in my eyes. Well done.

Love, Deb

Wow, I remember back when you first made this level and there were only about 18 of us.

Actually, Amy, there are loads more eligible for Level 4 than even 32. But as is expected, once people get to that Level they start to expand out with their writing, which is a really good thing. Shows the Challenge had the right impact on them. If all the eligible Level 4 people entered on the one week, we'd be bulging at the seams.

Love, Deb
