    Default .Org Writing Contest - Comments.

    This thread will be used for comments on the overall contest and where discussions about who the people (that's you!) think should win can be held.

    Play nice or it gets locked.

    I was actually waiting for the submission phase to become active to get an announcement up, and since it is I've talked to tosa. Check the ads now, you'll find we have one up.

    I think you just intimidated everyone with your entry.

    Congrats MountainTroll and The Stranger! Very well done. It was, as always, a tricky thing to choose the winners with the artistry of the entries. Thanks for the great images and interesting ideas.

    Thanks all!

    I was impressed that Ironsword's flowed along so nicely, even though he threw in words like "aspirant" and "bootstraps".

    And I was also intrigued by "The Stranger's" entry. The images are so interesting that it is more like a picture painted than a poem.

    Thanks for putting out a contest... writing is not natural to me, it is a little like climbing a mountain... a challenge. I only seem to write though when there is something at stake like, a deadline, or a mead hall award of fame :)

    I hope to parry pens with you all again in the next contest for the masses.
