Very high standard as usual.

A book of druidic lore to the winners, and book of "how to win competitions" for the losers

... just kidding, it includes me and all!

Especially big congrats to the multi-faceted Abhaill, a woman for all seasons, may she continue to grace our Eistefodds for many years to come.

To everyone :hug:
yr pal, Fox

Oh My!  Congratulations everyone who entered and thank you so VERY much for the votes!

I know it's just a small entry but that triad was the first artistic thing I've written in, literally, 10 years and the very first thing I've ever entered into any sort of competition.

:cloud9:

Again, congratulations to everyone who had the bravery to enter and thanks!!!!
