2011-08-07 [Eleanor]: Quick question about this contest, [Calliope]: Why do you have two categories and what do you mean by Potential Animals and Finished Animals? I wouldn't know where to put an entry. Thanks.

2011-08-08 [Calliope]: Two categories? Like why poetry and prose? The Potential Animals is those who think they're going to enter. Finished Animals is for the finished entries :)

2011-08-08 [Eleanor]: Ah, okay.

2011-08-11 [Calliope]: Yay! Potentials! *rubs hands together*

2011-08-11 [Eleanor]: I wrote my story a couple of years ago, which accounts for my speed at entering it. I've never owned a dog and my experience of them is pretty limited, so this was a challenge. Hope you like it!

2011-08-11 [Annie]: :D

2011-08-11 [Calliope]: Thank you Eleanor, it looks great!

2011-09-05 [Calliope]: Yay Annie!

2011-09-05 [Annie]: Woo :)

2011-09-11 [Annie]: 3 and a possible 4! :D

2011-09-13 [Calliope]: Awesome! Sabrina are you close to having an entry ready? There's no rush but if you haven't started and are busy I might just close and get the next round ready :)

2011-09-14 [Sabrina Catherine]: Go ahead... Baby on the brain so I can't think

2011-09-14 [Calliope]: Ok! Um, Annie your's is saying permission denied. I can't get in to read it :o

2011-09-14 [Annie]: Ya, you just need to be a member of my "access forum" to view my writings. Just click here and it shall be done. :) : <joinforum:32:join> (Annie's Writings Access)

2011-09-15 [Calliope]: Ah righto, Gotcha :)

2011-09-20 [Product of a Primal Urge]: So the deadline was set at three. Does that mean it's closed to entries?

2011-09-22 [Calliope]: Nope, if you want to enter go ahead! It was roughly set at 3 unless there was more interest and since I've been busy and haven't gotten around to judging anything yet if you've got an idea forming feel free to share :)

2011-09-22 [Product of a Primal Urge]: Okay, thanks!

2011-10-11 [Calliope]: Thank you ladies for all your wonderful entries! It was very hard to pick a winner. Badges have been handed out and the next animal chosen! Good luck for round 2 everyone :)

2011-10-11 [Annie]: Woo!

2011-10-12 [Product of a Primal Urge]: Cool, thanks [Calliope].
