With so many entries, I had to put them in categories! Some entries were cute or comical, most were disturbing or eerie, a couple were cynical and some strayed into fantasy realms. Without further ado: *Best Imagery* OrangeOreos _Good Morning, Sunshine!_ *Best Entry in Poetic Form* Stovohobo _Mirror, Mirror, On The Wall, What is My Greatest Fault of All?_ *Most Lighthearted and Amusing* Valley Fey/Pinprick _The Dance_ *Most Thrilling* MyCroft _Objects in Mirror Are Closer Than They Appear_ *Most Remorseful* Blusparrow _Tears and a Monster_ *My Personal Favorite* [pens &amp; feathers] _Miles Apart_ (It seems you know me, what I like, how I think, and we've never met!) *Honorable mention* to both Flute Faerie and Tears of Phoenix for reminding us of our connectivity to family and to each other. Also thanks to Blusparrow for her nod to soldiers serving in war. And Russell Ruffino, I couldn't get yours out of my head for days! It was a well-received challenge! Thanks to every single one of you for entering! 2008-05-06T20:22:32Z http://ficlets.com/feed/story/29151 <p>Wow!</p> <p>Thanks!</p> <p>This was a pretty cool challenge!</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/29151?basename=60635 2008-05-06T20:22:32Z OrangeOreos http://ficlets.com/authors/orangeoreos
