I really loved your piece this week - - you've been one of the people I've voted for consistently every week. I can't imagine how close the voting must have been, and I'm extremely sad to see you go. It's been wonderful to play alongside you, and I hope that you'll continue writing. <3

Thanks so much! That's so nice to hear. Given the strengths of the competition, I wouldn't be surprised if it was a close contest, but I'm just grateful I made it so far, especially after coming back from the Second Chance competition!

I've been enjoying your work, too. My favorite this season was the fairy tale about a young woman who rescued her love from the fey folk under the hill. I look forward to seeing what you come up with next!

Wow, guys. Thank you so much to my fellow contestants for helping to keep me fighting for another round! I'm always floored when I find that I've made it through again, especially considered the quality of the writing this season. Just thank you.

I can't say that I'm surprised or not at the results, honestly-I was prepared for pretty much anything. The five that are leaving are all so talented; it's always hard to lose anyone, but this time around feels particularly devastating. I know that I said in one of the Green Rooms that it made sense to be losing five people (after all, had we not had a "no-elimination" round at the top 16, we'd be getting to the top 10 most likely this time around, so ending up with 9 didn't seem too crazy), but really seeing those names up there... it sucks. I want us all to keep going.

alycewilson, you are better than anyone here at bringing life to your stories and your memories. You always put me right there, seeing things through your eyes, and your work has such heart and feeling that it is always, always such a ( ... )

Thank you so much for this comment. I'm glad you've enjoyed those memories I've shared this season. Your summaries of the people leaving really put into perspective exactly the level of the season we've reached. I also had a couple of them pegged to move into the top five.

With such a strong group remaining, though, especially yourself, I look forward to seeing what the season has yet to bring!

Thank you so much to the Jury. I really appreciated the immunity. This was such a hard week to survive. I will miss all the writers, but most of all halfshellvenus with her humor and extraordinary range.

You absolutely deserve to move on, but I share your sentiments about halfshellvenus. She's an enduring favorite of mine.

I would also like to echo dadi and viagra's gracious sentiments of gratitude to our fellow contestants... Thank you very much for extending the opportunity to write another day. ❤️

Also sorry to be losing such a large number of such dedicated, talented folks, but we are not assuming you will become strangers. We will still be here to read you, if you keep writing!
