I call for a recount! Helen Losse is the best - and the winner in my book.

Thanks Karen. I got 31 votes, so I’m not the biggest looser.

Helen, I know you did not win, but I have confidence that you’ll keep doing the write thing. Maybe next year will be the year.

Well, I tried. Guess we will have to wait until next year. Congrats, anyway for being on the list to compete. That, in itself, is great.

Thanks so much, Carol, Holly and Jana. The amazing thing is a poet blogger from Canada that I don’t even know nominated me because he enjoys my blog. How cool is that.
