I have messaged you on chat thanking you for the kind donation, but I feel it's not enough. So, thank you thank you THANK YOU!!!
Really though, I'm not quite sure why more people aren't participating. Personally, I think this is one of the more easier contests out there. It's not like I'm asking them to write koans of their own. They just need to tell their story and boom, money. One person who commented did confess that he didn't read the contest details, so I guess there's that. Maybe my name on any post is just a sign for people to stay away or not read it hahaha!
