I would love to enter, but I'm leaving tomorrow for a week-long mission trip and don't have time to write something today before I leave :P there better be other rounds, though, so I can enter! :D

Haha, I think our advertising has worked. :P


@Maeth: Sure thing, mate. :)



@Gilraen: Don't worry, there'll be contests all summer long. Different prompts, of course, but you'll have plenty of chances to enter. :happy:

Just a reminder that your entries are due tomorrow. ;) There won't be any extensions given, because we've got a schedule to stick to, so keep that in mind.
