I am so happy my story placed - especially as I noticed after submitting that I switched to present tense in the last paragraph. :shock: The story is not true but I had a friend who had twin boys several years ago - one of them died at 3 days. On their first birthday, I said to her that it must be s...

I have been taking part in the FaithWriters Challenge since 2006. I've had my fair share of ECs in that time for which I am grateful. But I have never ever come position number one in any level. So it feels really good to see my name up there. All things come to those who hang in there long enough!...

What a wonderful surprise to wake up to! Although my story is fiction, the places are real and the descriptions based on friends and acquaintances who suffered and died from AIDS while we lived in South Africa. It's a topic really close to my heart and I'm so thrilled to have come first with it. :mu...

Well done everyone. I was so pleased to get an EC this week. I spent a week in Hong Kong a couple of years ago and LOVED it. Definitely on my list of places to visit again. :lol: :lol: :lol:

I'd be smiling if I could. :D I had two horror visits to the dentist this week resulting in stitches and severe bruising...but I am so excited my NZ entry placed with me living here. I have visited all the places mentioned so that helped with authenticity. Congrats to everyone especially Josh. Great...
