Maybe a picture of cookies and milk together!

Isn't it kind of sadistic to be showing photos of cookies that we can't eat?


Brennan, I apologise for installing unnecessary cookies.

I've run into a bit of a snag posting to Writing.Com.

There's an item limit for free memberships of 5 items. We've got 7.

I've decided instead to simply make a packet to e-mail to the judges of all the stories. The stories will be made available to the public after judging, and at the entrants' discretion, in their own Writing.Com accounts.

I'll send out the packet this afternoon to the three judges who contacted me:

NYCitygurl
Dark_Lady_Jada
Master-Fatburt

If there was another, please contact me again, otherwise these are our three judges.

M. Scott

It was, if I'm not mistaken, agreed that the contest host would not be a judge as the host knows who the authors are.

Would it be possible to send out the packet to others as well? Assuming that it's done strictly on direct request, and of course that the authors' names aren't included, could that work? As long as it remains request-only, surely this doesn't contravene the first-publication-rights thing (not being available to the general public?)

It's just that it seems a pity that entrants and spectators can't read along and discuss during the judging period. I know I'd like to read all the entries before we have results, and I'm sure there are other Guilders and spectators who would too.

Just a thought. happy

Just recieved the entries for judging.



I've had a very quick scan through all of them, and I mean very quick and they all on the surface look like a fair bit of work has been thrown into them.


So before I even get into judging mode I'm going to say well done to the entrants for getting these in and I look forwards to reading your work.

The judgings have to be back to the host (Dorkman) in 3 weeks (28th) so we should have plenty of time to cover them all in detail.



So good luck everyone and may the best story win. happy
