I was up at 4am writing emails to the entrants in the Passionate Plume.  This is probably the hardest part of running a contest; telling 80% of the people their baby is not in the top 5.  If you had unhappy email from me today, I really hated sending it.  Probably not as much as you hated reading it, but it was close. 
But I did get to write 25 very happy emails – check out this list of finalists, and you’ve gotta agree that there are some awesome books entered this year!  The final round judges are some lucky readers, don’t you think?
