[The Tipsy Muse]

In brief --
<hr>

Thank you all, participants and commentators for making event VI for hitting the mark with our Judge, even with the light number of entries.

Congratulations to our Tipsy Muse Poetry Contest event VI grand prize winner, whose sonnet drew raves from our distinguished judge: "... the poet takes Victor Hugo’s 'Hunchback of Notre Dame' and gives the story of the bell-ringer a different trajectory ..."

The Eratospherean, "Jude"

And, our three honorable mention winners, selected in no particular order by our Judge:

1. Roger Slater
2. Christopher Wagner
3. Ralph C. La Rosa

To winning member, "Jude" using a handle, please send me your full/real names to the 'Administrator' so that the awards page can be updated with the proper information.

Congratulations again. Well done!
