Does Bookworm Cris realize he/she needs 100 posts to vote?
Has Robin mistaken this for the "Questions Only" thread? :lol: :lol: You have the right to vote, use it or lose it, I always say. I was unfortunately sick during the May voting, but I won't miss another, if I can help it. ;) Just back from Holiday yesterday, and the votes haven't gone up by much, although the views have. Hummmmm. :confused:
There are some really good stories here!
Looks like another clear winner in the making...
Friends, Romans!
Only 10 more days of voting! We need more votes!
there were 28 votes last time, where is everyone?
I wanted to take my time and decide between two of them . . .
Are we allowed to talk about the submitted stories in this thread?
That would be a no, ShoutGrace :). If the authors wish to receive feedback for their stories, they can re-submit them in the General Writing subforum (unless they happen to be the author of the winning story, of course ;))
This is a literature forum so I guess they are Gone With the Wind! Hee-hee! ;) Seriously, if everyone who's read the stories voted, (provided it's not like me, everyone's read them a couple times each :rolleyes:), there would be more votes! :nod:Quote:

Hi grace,
Yes, the poll closes on June 30th. You have about 10 days to read the stories and vote. There is a good selection so I am sure you will have a great time, reading them. :)
oops, you must have meant 100 posts! :pQuote:

Last 8 days...
Hard choice. But I voted finally. All were great compared to my ability to write.
I agree, grace. All the stories are well-written, which makes it very hard to vote. Thanks for taking the time to read and vote! :)Quote:

but maybe the mods could set the language to English for all documents?
can we have a "guess who wrote what story" thread at the end of the year?
It is up to individual members whether they would like to reveal their identities and also open up their stories for criticism so we will wait until they decide to come forward (or not :))
Going once...

All the stories are read before they are posted here but there might be incidents that we might overlook things. I am not sure what you are refering to exactly so would you like to PM me about the 'Word caprice' you are referring to? Thanks :)
Going twice...
Congratualtions to the writer of 'The Killing Word', the winner of June '06 elimination and will take part in the finals.
The writers of the other stories can post their stories for reviews by Forum members if they would like to.
I would like to thank both writers and those members who take the time to read and vote! :)
