Thank you for posting this out front, Jen! For those of you who would like to link to the thread: Link to thread And here's a link to the page where you upload your work to the Challenge once you're done: Link to Challenge If you want your entry to be part of the challenge, you have to upload it through that link (the upload boxes are at the bottom of the page). Don't post whatever you've done in your gallery until after the voting has taken place! I'd love to see some of the writers here get involved in this. I mean really ... it's what we do! :) I'm already working on a couple ideas ... see which one I like best ...
