Some time ago, I entered my What Am I? (was that the one I got a GAD for?) to Secret Diary... I got this email today:
"Dear Writer,
Congratulations, your poem has made it into the top thirty entries this month.
As usual we have had several hundred poems this month, so I am pleased to say that you have beaten some pretty stiff competition to make it into the
shortlist.
Your prize for being a top thirty entrant is a free fully registered copy of the Secret Attic diary software.
You may be interested to know that we have compiled the top thirty stories and top thirty poems into a printed booklet that can be ordered from the following page, you will need to check whether you are in poem booklet 1 or booklet 2:
Booklet here
You can see who else made the top thirty poems and who the overall winner was here:

The next competition starts from today, this will be the Secret Attic February competition.
Thank you for entering, we look forward to reading more of your work in the future.
Kind Regards
David White
Secret Attic"
Anyone entered that before? If so, how'd it go?
I only did it on a day I was bored... Entered the Suicide one (hidden in "The Depressed") but no sign of that...
