Just once this time, so far...I think I submitted my last one at least four times.

This sh*t needs to stop.

I need a beer.

Is that submissions, or glasses of wine?

Just the once.  But I wrote:
3 false starts
2 rough drafts that were completely scraped
3 versions of what would become the final copy
1 final that I had my mother and sister go over with a fine toothed comb
I whittled from 1566 to 999.  Phew!

I'm anal, so by the time I submit, it's been thoroughly vetted by me and others. I haven't submitted more than once - so far. Never say never.

I submitted only once for all the other challenges, then I spied a typo after the third. It seems once the dam of resubmitting breaks, there's no end to it.
