[QUOTE="Irysangel, post: 340684, member: 5257"] Hey I feel *exactly* the same way. I'm kinda relieved I didn't win, because I've been tossing and turning my submission (which was my original novel synopsis) because now I see so many different things I'd do with it. It's gotten me all fired up and rarin' to go on my novel again, and my story sounds better than ever. If I would have advanced to the next round I'd have to throw back in a few ideas I've already tossed into the trash, so I'm glad for that. I mourn the loss of my 120K though! ;) Grats to those that advanced. Thinking about posting my setting, but most likely not. I already know why I didn't win -- other than humans, I didn't use Elves/Dwarves/Gnomes for my demi-humans. Mine were a different breed entirely, and I think that probably would not have gone over so well in the long run. Oh well! Grats to those that won!! :) /Irys, very cheerful this morning to found out she lost! Woot! [/QUOTE]
