Black_Beast,
Congrats on your first place. I really enjoyed your entry. Man was it grim. You are quite right about the writing part. I did the same with my mother and father, writing letters to them until they passed. There was just something special about holding a letter full of thoughts and dreams....perhaps a disappearing artform now.
Rickie and Scott, thanks for the vote of confidence. Screen shots would have been nice, but I'm still trying to get a new computer and haven't rescued anything off the busted one yet.
I thought the contest was really a cool one, and wanted to thank you all for having it.
