The Joy of Judging
 
Know what I love? Being on this end of a contest--the judging. I love holding the numbered entries in my hands, all that potential in a nice, neat stack. There is the thrill of finding a great phrase, beautiful words, a compelling story. I get excited by the possibilities.
 
So now if you'll excuse me, I've got some reading to do.
