For the past week, I have been assisted by six incredible judges in reading through all of the fantastic entries that were submitted for the Valentine's Day Contest. This was something I could not have done alone, so please thank Rydia, Kafkaescence, Audy, GeeLyria, Twit and StellaThomas for their hard work.

Now, as for the results:

All of you submitted fantastic entries, and it was hard to go through them and decide what to cut and what to keep. I don't want anyone to feel discouraged, so if you did not place and would like me to write a review of your work, send me a PM and I'd be happy to do so.

Without further ado:


Poetry

Congratulations to all of the winners. If you placed third through first, please PM me to claim your prize - beckiw and indeeloise, you each have a choice between a coffee mug and mousepad, so please tell me that in your PM! Honorable mentions will be receiving a gift from me momentarily.

All our dreams can come true — if we have the courage to pursue them.

Congratulations everyone! This was a really close contest and I've thoroughly enjoyed helping to judge! It was really hard to cast my votes toward the end, but everyone who placed was spectacular! And so were many who didn't.

Well done everyone!

Thanks again!

Zangrazulations! :O XDD
I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living.


New to YWS? We'll help you out! <3'
