last minute christmas shopping is the worst. i should be able to finish my reads by late tonight.

 

[WPZanar07]

ya, the stores are packed with last-minute shoppers. It's like, a tradition, or something.

 

[Breezy3]

And that is exactly why I am not out there shopping! LOL!

I totally missed this contest... maybe another time. I am fairly new here and getting things figured out little by little!

 

[NeoScribe]

Maybe we'll start a new one when the voting is over. It's Christmas break right now, so I want to be a contestant this time.

 

[WPZanar07]

I wonder who the winner is going to be...

 

[Lessien]

Me too....

 

[WPZanar07]

Maybe it's the guy with the blazer and t....and the scottish broadsword....lol, just kidding. Good luck to everyone.

 

[Lessien]

No, I think it's the girl with the white hair, fairy wand and blue dress....

Not really. Good luck to ya'll.

I haven't heard from the other judges, except for Pages.

I'll be glad to send my comments about your stories anyone who would like them. Just let me know if you'd like them. They're not exhaustive, just my main thoughts upon reading the stories.

 

[CelticRose]

Thanks for the update Ravenscape. Guess it's a busy time of year for everybody.

Comments please when you have time. No hurry. I reckon I can pretty well pick my faults but I shall be interested in your feedback just the same.

Hope you had a nice Chrissy & great holiday.

Sent my notes along via PM. We've had a wonderful Christmas holiday. We flew out to spend time with relatives in Florida on the 26th, and will be returning home on the 6th. The time visiting family has been WONDERFUL!

Hey if You don't mind when you have time can you send my comments out too. Thanks

 

[Pages]

None of the comments were to be given out. I thought I posted that in the rules. Sorry if they're not there. I'll go check. I haven't heard from two of the judges so I don't know who has won yet. If the two judges who haven't sent them out yet don't get them to me by January 7, then I'll go with what I have and post the winners.

I misunderstood. I thought we were not to give out our ranking info. I didn't realize that the general comments about the strengths and areas of improvement for the story shouldn't be given out.

I'm curious why we should not share those kinds of notes. I personally as a writer would like that kind of feedback from someone who reads my story critically.

 

[Pages]

Oh, I thought you were giving out who voted for who. Sorry, if that's not what you meant, then it is fine to tell them the thoughts of the judges, just not who said them or what votes they got.

 

[ravenscape]

Ok...I'm just giving my own comments on the stories to people who ask for them.

 

[CelticRose]

I appreciate the critical feedback so I know what I need to work on.
