Editors' Choice: The Great BR Fishing & Wishing 100 – 100 Contest : )

As you may recall, 29 of the pieces that were submitted between July 2010 and June 2011 for both the original 100-Word Contest and the 100 – 100 Contest were honored at the Wine and Words 100th Issue event in July.

Now, out of all the pieces submitted between July 2011 and January 2012, we have chosen five to honor as well. Each of the five authors will receive a Bamboo Ridge Press exclusive Cora Yee “Walking the Tightrope” T-shirt and a signed copy of Lee Cataluna's Three Years on Doreen's Sofa.
