July Week 3 Update: We Put a Cookie on It

These races are all still very close! We've been cheering you on from our desks over here in sunny Santa Clara. Every day, we check to see how our authors are doing, and we've gotten quite competitive among ourselves. It's all in good fun, we swear! There may be a friendly bet or two going on, but the prizes are stupid things like pride and cookies. That's right, we've put some cookies on who we think the winners might be.

Mmmm... Specialty's Cookies
