This was fun and I said, "aww I didn't win." But then I said, "ooh, I did because I wrote fiction for the first time in a long time."
In general, I've stopped writing fiction on e2 because there are people oh-so-much better than me and it really is hard for me to do and I love it but I don't need to pour out my soul anymore. I wish hard every day that I could write a great story like some folks do here constantly, but that is not my gift. This little contest let me forget that for a while and pretend anyway. It was fun.
