  1. Yay! Congrats to the winners! Everyone got such great critiques, though, that it seems like each participant won (in a way).

    Thank you to Authoress and Mary, as well as this whole amazing community.

  7. OH MY GOODNESS. I am number 42. My day is officially made. :D

    Aaaand as if this couldn't get better, Mary Kole was actually at the very top of my "to-query" list! There's no one else I'd rather have critiquing/ripping my pages to shreds.

    Congratulations, also, to number #37, whoever you may be! :)

    Again, thank you SO much to Authoress and everybody who left critiques--and really to everyone who's ever taken part in this contest. I've been lurking for awhile, and seeing everybody else post their excerpts and take and give feedback so graciously has been really inspiring.

    Okay, I'll shut up now. I tend to ramble when I get excited. *grins*

  10. I agree 100% what a great experience. Thanks to the people who commented on #2 (mine). I can't wait to take all your comments and get to work polishing my first page! Somehow, I didn't realize Mary would comment on each of the submissions, so that was an awesome bonus (secret agent newbie here).
