Hey, I have missed this place. I took last quarter off as I was running a mini-Bible School for youth evangelists out here in Mozambique and I didn't see myself having the time to make the most of FaithWriters. Besides, being colour-blind, the topics didn't exactly inspire - I mean like, what's the ...

Way to go, Josiah. We half-expected that he might have had his name in lights with last week's "Fred the Flower" story. Instead his multimedia bonanza slipped off the charts. So it's wonderful that a more conventional tale has earned him his first EC. The competition in our house just got ...

What cracks me up is that after all the fuss we made, only two people so far have left comments on the Highest Rankings for Spring!

Oh... Poor Deb. :cry: Leave her be! Latest news is that Deb has been released from her hotel room. However Jan immediately challenged her to a game of word association. Thus far, with Jan's unremitting store of synonyms and Deb's penchant for puns and other obscure connections, they are into their ...

Busy? Why would they be busy right now? I have an idea. Now this may be an overactive writer's imagination, but it makes sense to me. I reckon that at the FW conference Deb must have read out the top 40 list at the same time as announcing the new pay-to-see-your-actual-scores scheme. Hence ten minu...

Well knock me over with a feather! Wow and thanks to the judges for having a great sense of humour. And congrats especially to Loren - I wasn't at all sure how his tale would be received and I'm thrilled to see it place. As a general rule, I tend to choose a different level each week and leave comme...

Knock me over with a feather :o After reading Deb's clarification on the Twilight Years I didn't think I stood a chance. And it took five long days before I even picked up my first comment, so I logged on today more to see how my wife and sons had done! So a big thank you to the judges for being wil...

Re: Congratulations!

You placed 20th in Level 3 this week (out of 58 entries) and 50th overall (so just ten off the top 40). That was out of 189 entries. To put it in perspective, your entry was exactly 0.06667 off the 40th place winner. That's very close. Love, Deb You know, to me that sounds ridiculously close, just ...

We have had no internet connection for a couple of days so I have only just seen the results now. Wow, swoon, fall over backwards and hit the floor! It's a funny thing but I wasn't entirely satisfied with my entry for this week. I was trying to do something clever with twists and counter-twists and ...

There's a sense in which the betrayal of Jesus by Judas Iscariot is one of the great surprises in the gospel narrative. Most of us are so familiar with the story that we know what is going to happen. But imagine the reader's shock at discovering that one of the Lord's inner circle - someone who has ...

My thanks to the judges for seeing the good in my story and not taking offence. I have been delighted by the enormous number of comments I have received, indicative that this hard-hitting message about HIV has touched a chord with many people. And finally a word to the weary and discouraged. This be...

Wow, some incredibly imaginative and creative stories this week. And the Kane family rivalry continues unabated. Is that my teenage son I see just moping around at position 11. Stop sulking and go get your bedroom tidy! And there's his mother sitting comfortably at position 23, trying not to think a...

Congratulations to one and all.

And a special thanks to the many people who left gold boxes this week. I have noticed a marked increase in the number of comments. Let's continue to encourage and be a help to one another
