Entirely unexpectedly and after a big unti-climax – when I checked results earlier The Money Principle was forth in its group – I just realised that I made it amongst the finalists.

 

Now have one week to write the competing article and submit it – after that it is off to my friends and supporters.

 

A very happy and overwhelmed

No I didn't! It was decided to include the ones in forth position – because two sites are in the first three with two different entries. Check it out:

This is why it came as such a surprise!

Well done Maria. I think I ended up joint 5th, was pleased with that as a relative noob. 

Enjoy putting the finishing touches to your finals article entry and good luck with rest of the comp!

Objective Wealth, not bad – the story is that the difference in numbers was very small between the entries. Next year!

 

Now I have a confession to make: things are progressing as they should and after the initial giddy happiness I moving to wards a slight concern and headed towards full blown panic. Thank heavens, John (my tristed husband, editor and souding board) claims that I need to reach panic every time I write – any kind of piece!

 

Oh, well – off to the gym now and continue thinking and writing after that!
