However it has come to my attention that no one can quite tell what my piece is about. I am happy with this out come. I will admit I know where I was going, and how everything connects. But I like to see it being interpeted in different ways. 
Also,  the length is due to the fact that I stumbled across this contest at 11 pm, the day before it was due And decided to write something quickly to submit.

I hope at the very least you'll give us some insight into the hidden meaning of your text once the contest ends—if not before then, though I can completely understand the desire to see where the river flows first.

Also (this applies to anyone, not just last-minute entries) -- I haven't set up the archive just yet, on account of, you know, we've only had the one contest finished so far. But when I do get it up, if you'd prefer to replace your submitted entry with an edited version (perhaps fleshed out after the deadline is past, or perhaps taking some critiques to heart and updating accordingly), we're planning on supporting that.

Out of curiosity, will entrants be able to opt-out of having their entries archived—or alternatively, opt-in? I ask largely because I know some of the writers in the first contest felt disappointed in their work, wanting to improve, and so they might want to wait until they've written something they feel proud of before it gets permanently displayed.
