Winners of the 3rd Annual #AprilFools4Writers Contest

First off, thanks to everyone who participated in this year's #AprilFools4Writers contest (if you want to know what I'm talking about, click here). I had a great time (and I hope you did too). Creative exercises like this are a wonderful way to inspire us--and an easy way to have a little fun. While the winners were selected randomly, it is worth noting that all five had pretty clever contributions, so I'm sharing them here.

Without further ado, the winners (and their #AprilFools4Writers headlines) are:
