CONGRATULATIONS to the winners. Your stories were fantastic!

And CONGRATULATIONS to ALL the writers. I thought ALL the stories were fantastic and it was so hard to choose just one in each category. You gave me many hours of reading pleasure and I shall come back to them again and again! You are all winners in my book!

Congratulations to all the winners and thank you to all of you writers for sharing your talent with these wonderful stories.

I'm with Lynn on this one, I think this was one of the hardest challenges to vote for, as all the stories were wonderful. I also found it hard to choose just one for some of the catagories. Great job, all of you.

I had a hard time voting this time because of all the wonderful stories entered!! I wanted to vote for them all!!!

Congratulations to all the winners and my hat's off to all the writers who entered this challenge!! You all did a superb job!!!

Joy

Congratulations to the winners and to all who wrote for the Valentine Challenge. It was indeed hard to make a choice. Thank you all for providing wonderful stories for us to enjoy.

This was definately a difficult challenge to vote for. Everyone did such an amazing job with their stories. You should all be very, very proud of the wonderful work you've done.

This was a great challenge with some amazing stories! Thanks to all who participated (writers and readers alike) and congrats to the winners. It was tough to choose just one to vote for in each category, but what a great dilemma to have!!!

Thank you to the writers for all those wonderful stories, and thank you to the readers for all the generous comments and for taking the time to vote for your favourite.

Congratulations to everyone !

Congratulations to the winners! The stories in this challenge were some of the best ever!

I know I already said my congratulations, but I'm in such a joyful mood today, I just wanted to say one more thing which is always in the back of my mind, but today felt like I needed to bring it to the forefront and express it; and that is, THANK YOU Janet and TinaLynne and all the other administrators and moderators for administering and monitoring this great fanfic site.

And a special BIG HEARTY THANK YOU to Suesfan and Kav for administering this challenge (you're the ones listed on the challenge forum.) I presume it was you who created all the story ideas; if not please pass on my THANK YOU to the others who assisted.

The story ideas were terrific and we, the readers, were blessed with so many wonderful stories. I know it is a lot of work to administer this site and these challenges and I don't think you all get enough credit for what you do for us, the 4004 members, not to mention the untold non-members, who come out here seeking pleasure from the written word based on our favorite TV characters... mine being, who else but Jack and Sue!

I just wanted to express my thanks! And I'm sure everyone else out here will join me in giving ya'll a great big THANK YOU

Lynn

CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU ALL they were all great
