Thank you.

So that's four of us so far: Gail (the winner) plus finalists Susan, Cathy, and myself. There must be eight more finalists out there somewhere. As I understand it, all 12 of these sonnets will appear in a future issue of Measure.

Congratulations to you all. So many Sperians! — Gail, Catherine, Susan, Claudia… are there others who have not checked in? But the biggest congrats goes to Gail, of course, for winning in such a tough field. I look forward to reading them all.

Wow! That's great news. Congratulations!

Warm congratulations, Gail!

Gail: I think they're embroidered with a twerking Miley Cyrus insignia this year (sigh...the constant pressure to be hip!), but I will have to check with Bill Baer. Congrats again, Mike.

[Maryann Corbett]

Congratulations again, Gail! And congratulations to Cathy, Susan, and Claudia, and I too hope the others report in.

I've updated the award's Wikipedia page with the new information. It's about time Gail had her own Wikipedia entry!

[Janice D. Soderling]

Claudia and Susan too!! Wow! I am really looking forward to reading these.
