		<description><![CDATA[This week's winner did a fantastic job of describing the situation the character is facing, without actually describing the scene. The piece took place entirely inside the character's head, and he (or she) is faced with a rather extreme decision of pulling the trigger on a gun.

		<description><![CDATA[It's often tempting to make a character sketch narrative. But a character sketch should really be more of a series of small, yet detailed, observations that when taken as a whole give the reader insights into the character. Think of it like a hill of sand. All the different grains of sand themselves are insignificant, but take a shape when put together. The most important thing is to make the character is three-dimensional, and in doing so bring them alive. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This week's winner demonstrated a keen sense of sentence structure that lent not only form to the "character," but also depth. The entry clearly captures the thought process of a hawk searching for food, but adds an interesting existential twist.]]></description>
