Yeah, the winner is, if you haven't guessed (although I hope that you weren't able to):
Julie Skywalker
Congratulations!
I would also like to make a shout-out for two new authors to the contest: AnActualLion and lionobsession. Welcome to the party!
For the next round of the writing contest, I am thinking of simply completely abandoning the usual schedule. Since I am now rather bad at following it, here is what I think I will do: All writing portions of the contest will be at least two weeks long, and voting will always last at least a week. Other than that, when I feel like I have the time to create the next contest, I will do so without waiting for the week to end first.
So hopefully, see you all soon with the 34th writing contest!
