I am so sad about this! I wanted to enter so bad. Curse procrastination and lack of time. *sigh* I suppose even if I had finished the piece I was looking to enter, it may have been a bit too dark, even though it was set during the christmas season.
"Don't tell me the moon is shining; show me the glint of light on broken glass. " ~ Anton Chekhov "Writing makes a person very vulnerable. It opens you to public criticism, to ridicule, to rejection. But it also opens conversation and thought. It stirs minds, and touches hearts. It brings us into contact with our souls. So how can it possibly be a waste of time, an idle act, a mistake, a betrayal of truth? Who can possibly tell us not to do it?"
~Joan Chittister, Order of Saint Benedict
Best wishes to the entrants :)
