Winners all

So my husband Mike didn't win this year, but one story that I really liked ("A Kind of Flotsam" by Christelle Rhodamae Mariano) did. (Winners here.) As for the rest of the placings, I wouldn't have predicted how it turned out, but good for them anyway.

Was pleasantly surprised to find out that My Imaginary Ex has a page on Livingsocial. And reviews! Thank you to people who bother to go on the Internet and write about the book. I know it's an effort, and whether it's praised, or panned, or mentioned nonchalantly as that thing you bought today, I appreciate it.
