Write-A-Thon (Day Two, Part Three)

There are new words, I'm too lazy to click the word count button, but they're on the screen staring back at me, but more importantly I wanted to say a few thank yous. First to everyone who has supported my effort in the Write-A-Thon, as well as those who have supported another writer or simply the good work Dzanc is doing. Now to recognize some specific people, an amazing group who answered my rally call earlier today (and let me know about it):

Natasha Weidig - Selected to see her name in a story
Nancy Baumann - Selected for me to include the word funkistrated in a story
Carin Thumm - Selected to see her name in a story
Jill Adams - Who didn't select a major award, but is made of awesome
Tom and Lynne Casey - Who are compiling a list of words to screw with my head
Tom Smetana - My brother, I think having put up with him for 30 years is award enough, but I'll recognize him in a story somehow (a promise is a promise)
Kevin Wallis - Who didn't select a major award, but I'm going to steal part of his name for a character anyway

Thanks! Gracias! Merci! Mahalo! Děkuji! Toda! Arigatô! Etc.
