How's everyone feeling? Are we expecting mid-afternoon emails? Or expecting a delay? eep!

Good luck everyone!

I'm trying not to think about it! Ha ha. And being in the UK means it's 5am Thursday for us, so I've likely still got 1 more sleep til I get the email! Cannot wait to see how everyone's faired though Smile

I'm not expecting to advance and I'm okay with that. I've got a busy weekend, and having to write a story might trigger the complete meltdown I've been staving off for the past few months. Still, I hope they put us out of our misery early - the time difference means I go to bed about 6pm NY time, and I don't sleep well if I'm waiting for results.

This is the first time I made it to the 2nd round of the Short Story Contest, so I would like to make it to the 3rd.  We'll see.

I'm really proud of my round 2 story, and when that happens I usually don't advance ha. I hope I do, just so I can get some dedicated writing time this weekend!

Anyone else get intense heart palpitations while scrolling to find their group? I sometimes forget my group number, too, since it's been a hot minute. LOL (I know I could just search by my name. It would be less stressful ...or a briefer stressful time.)

This year having political satire for the first time, I'm really unsure of my chances. Shoutout "good luck" to my group member Tyrapendragon on this post!

Not so patiently waiting. I’ve made round 2 a few times, but never moved beyond. I really hope this is the year. 
Good luck to all!

Super impatient!  I have less than no time to write this weekend, but ... it would be exciting to be in round three.  I'm not sure what exactly I'm hoping for, but I want to find out soooooooooon (knowing, of course, that it's still hours and hours and hours left).

I'm definitely starting the obsessive refreshing of my inbox and periodic bouncing to the site to make sure I didn't miss the email. I guess I'm kind of anxious for results! 😅

I'm impatient too. And, as someone else said, I liked this story of mine this time around - which is usually the kiss of death for me with the judges. We shall see though. Good luck, everyone!
