[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]Thank you for your patience waiting for the announcement of our November contest winners. We had more than 150 entries, and we didn’t anticipate how good each of them were going to be, so we just needed some extra time. You’re awesome for understanding.

Though our original intent was to award the top three entries regardless of genre–personal essay, short fiction or poetry, microstories–we ended up with a pleasant surprise: when we each ranked our top three writers and their submissions, the winners turned out to be one from each challenge grid.

Displayed below are, first, the editorial staff’s top picks, and, second, the eventual winners and the writers who referred them to the contest. Don’t forget, we are awarding double prizes this time around. So whatever the winners’ prizes, her referrer gets the same exact prize package.

Thanks to everyone who entered our November 2014 contest and to everyone who faithfully voted for the crowd favorites each week. A huge thank you to my editorial staff who worked this contest, seemingly, around the clock. Once this post is published, we’ll all be taking a long-needed nap.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
