I wrote it for the contest. I had actually written one before this one on wool diaper covers, and was hoping to win with that one. They emailed me that it was a finalist, and suggested that I write another to try again, since there were still several weeks left in the contest.

I've been wanting to write up a bunch of natural living guides to get the info out there that there are alternatives to all those synthetics we expose our babies to, and figured what better time to submit it than when it has a chance to win $1000. I didn't really think this soft-soled one was strong enough to be a winner, but I'm still researching my other two guides I'm in the process of writing, so I just went ahead and submitted it.

I knew they'd be announcing the next winner yesterday, and hadn't heard from ebay at all, so I was fairly sure this guide wasn't even a finalist this time. You could have knocked me over with a feather when I refreshed the winners' list and saw my name there!

I still haven't heard word one from ebay - no email or anything that says "congrats you're the winner," kinda weird, huh? Although I had emailed a previous week's winner for some tips a while ago and she told me it took 2 weeks for them to give her the prize, so I guess they're not in any big rush...
