and, in the spirit of stream of consciousness poetry, stream of consciousness avatars! Note the spartan design. And the pie. There was much pie.

Congrats to everyone that entered and especially those that won. I must say, when I was voting, I was still having a tough time deciding between whose I liked most at the end it - it was a very tough task to slowly eliminate all but the final three I chose.

Whatever the case, congrats again, and HUZZAH FOR PIE!

Thank you everyone. This is the first prize that I have recieved for a contest on the story board and to tell you the truth, I didn't expect it at all. When I first heard about this contest, I wasn't sure about entering. I thought I had a bad rep here, considering how whiny I was about the lack of a short story contest until one was posted a couple months ago. But a part of me wanted to enter, and a part of me wanted to show you guys what I was made of, and a part of me wanted to win. So I did and I'm glad I made that choice. Ironically, in the end it wasn't being #1st place that made me happy, it was the fact that my work got recognized by a larger community, a community called Toonzone.

This win is special because it's proven to me that I have a voice and, more importantly, others are listening.

A special thank you goes out to Barb Gordon and Matt Williams for finding the time in their busy lives to make these contests for us, you guys are the best! God this is getting emotional, thank you all for voting my poem #1, I really appreciate it and I' promise that I'll take this as a sign to keep working hard on my writing.

You'll be seeing me around here for a long time!

BTW, congrats to Ziggy and Strawberry Jam and everyone else who participated!:D
