It's funny, I always feel bad for the athletes that come in fourth at the Olympics. They've worked so hard and come soooo close to bringing back a prize, just narrowly missing it.
But now that it's happened to me, I'm thrilled. Maybe because when I first read Smish's list and saw the 29 next to my story, I thought I'd come in 29th. And then I remembered - there were only 25 entries.
Thanks to everyone who voted for Revenge of the Shunned. I've never written a complete story with so few words, and that was a fun challenge.
