Happy Friday, writers! Shannon here.

We’ve been slaving away to narrow down the gigantic pool of entries in the SHOW ME EXHAUSTION contest. There were SO MANY great entries. If you do not find your name on the list below, please do not be discouraged. We have feedback for each and every one of you and I’ll be emailing it out in the next few days. Be patient with us, okay. There’s a lot to be sent.

In random order, I give you your finalists!
