The gossip site Gawker was holding a Thanksgiving Horror Story contest last week for the most outrageous holidays tales. On a whim, I decided to submit one I had written a couple of years ago inspired by the lovely antics of my family on the holidays!
AND I WON! Well, I at least got mentioned. I about crapped myself!!! I really thought I had won won at first but then I had to calm down and realized I was an honourable mention for The Overly Dramatic Oscar. Still a big deal to get mentioned. Gawker is a pretty well known site! I am so excited!!!
You can check out the Gawker page here (I'm at the end of the list just before the grande prize - gotta love the new title they gave it) - or you can read it on Redhead Dancing here. The commenters on Gawker thought I should have won - AND I was compared to Flannery O'Connor.
That's winning in my book!!!
