Tomorrow is "Judgment" day, so to speak. This is my first time entering, so I don't know what to think. Trying not to get my hopes up. But now that I've met so many of you on here and the amazon boards, I'm excited to see any of us move on! Good luck everyone!

Freaking out? I'm sort of in this fugue state where everything is unreal. It's beyond excitement. I may be catatonic; I'm not sure. Ask me tomorrow. :-) Good luck to all.

Well you're at least still able to type! ;)
So sorry again about that spoiler on amazon. I hope you're still enjoying the book.

In retrospect, it's funny as heck. Starting reading it last night. Dude, seriously, zombies aren't usually my thing but I'm really liking the soldier PoV.

Jenelle I just feel antsy... in a "let's get it over with" sort of way.

Awesome KR! That puts a smile on my face :)

And Jenelle, I think that's pretty much how I've been feeling these last couple days.

Amy Martin | 6 comments I just want it over with. I'm a very impatient person. Luckily, I have lots of meetings tomorrow, so I won't have time to sit around and hit "refresh" on my browser. :)

Lisa | 5 comments Either way, I'll just be glad when the announcement comes. If I don't make it through, I'll allow myself a few minutes of disappointment, but that's it. The way I see it, it's just one opportunity of many. Of course, that said, it would be nice to make it through.

Good luck, everyone!

Samyann I'm not antsy. It's already published by CreateSpace and KDP. I've even got the audiobook in production for Amazon release via Audible.com. There's nothing in it for them to include my book in the contest. So I'm not expecting to even make the first cut. Besides, like has been said, there are 10,000 submissions. Like mine is going to float to the top of that pile ...... pfft :-). Way too many more talented people out there.

Carolynn Amara | 14 comments I am hopeful yet doubtful yet excited yet terrified. This is my first time entering, my first novel...I can't wait for it to be over yet I don't want it to end. I'm a hot mess..lol what time are they supposed to put up the list of peoplethat made it through?

Laura Pascucci | 16 comments I can't believe how fast this month when by. This is my third year entering. I have never made it past the first round. Good luck to all!

S.E. Duncan | 47 comments Okay, I'm freaking out about tomorrow! BUT... I'm having an awesome day today. I used a kdp select free day today, so far 2330 people have downloaded "Ella Awakened". It is #1 on the kindle bestsellers list in paranormal fantasy and #6 in paranormal romance. *Happy dance*

The closer we get the more convinced I am that I'm not going to make it through. Right now I kind of just want it over with.

A.E.M. A.E.M. Oh, darn, S.E. I missed your free day! I may have to snag it anyway! :o)

A.E.M., I lowered the price to 99 cents. Right now I just want to get as many copies out there and read as possible. I had over 3300 downloads yesterday! Even though they were free I couldn't be more excited!

A.E.M. A.E.M. Bought it tonight. ;). Look forward to reading it!

Your amazing! I hope you enjoy it. It's just an easy fun story. I've said it before - I've escaped and gotten lost in books my whole life. The thought that I can create a world for others to get lost in is overwhelming! I hope you enjoy it. Can't wait to hear what you think!
