@Cyprus I'm pretty sure that in the past contests, they've given us a week between hitting 40 articles and closing the contest, so there is still time. :)
I finally have an entry! I've been wanting to enter for a while, but just haven't had the gumption to finish any of the myriad of articles I've started. This one's been rattling around my brain all day, so I finally sat down to write it a few hours ago. :D...
