2025 edit: Thank you again to everyone who participated, and happy 10 year anniversary to Waffle Cones! Thank you all for reading! <3
Alrighty! So basically, I hosted a contest in 2016 to celebrate Waffle Cones reaching a million reads. It was split into #WaffleConesDIA and #WaffleConesDES, which were dialogue and description respectively. Thank you to those who entered! Give yourselves a pat on the back, because you write my characters better than I do.
Also, I just want to give a huge shoutout to everyone who entered: _SkyTheSpy_, -moonrise-, sxphxo, ChocoDarling23, dreamsofaunicorn, silent_queen237, geek_girl_writer, and circularities.
Without further ado, here are the talented winners of the dialogue contest!

3rd place | Sushi by dreamsofaunicorn
This was hilarious! The epic pun war had me on the ground with laughter. Plus, you wrote Fletcher and Emily perfectly. There were enough snarky remarks to keep me entertained, but not an excessive amount. I loved your entry, it was adorable!
Prizes: A shoutout on my message board + one day of account and story promotion on all my social media accounts.
2nd place | Waffle Combs by -moonrise-
Your entry was the epitome of sassiness, and that's what I like to think Waffle Cones is all about, so this was amazing! The perfectly timed one-liners had me in hysterics, and the introduction was by far my favourite part. Plus, the waffle comb is a genius invention that I'd totally invest money in if it was real.
Prizes: A shoutout on my message board + a follow from my main account + votes and comments on one story of your choosing.
1st place | Parker and Jen by circularities
My only reaction to this entry, was wow. Like, an infinite number of wows. I was speechless by the end. My favourite part was the epic fourth wall breaking and how it shattered so hard, even I managed to get a cameo in there. I love how it featured two characters who were based off of Emily and Fletcher. Plus, them being fangirls and fanboys of my book was surreal! Zaara, you are truly one of a kind. Your entry was incredible!
Prizes: A shoutout on my message board + votes and comments on two stories of your choosing + your contest entry being featured on this story for one month.
I'm sure you want to read the winning entry, don't you? Your wish is my command.
