I don't think I ever made a formal announcement regarding my elimination from Season VII of the LJ Idol writing competition. Being as it happened on essentially what was already the worst day of my life I didn't have much to say about it at the time ... and still don't.
But here's the beginning of the index of my entries from last season.

Entry:
Here There Be DragonsType: narrative, informative
