Story Teller's Choice Award - Voting Open!
First, the business stuff.
--- Nominations for the 2008 Story Teller's Choice Award are now closed. The candidates have been selected from those nominations. Here are the six authors, with links to their nominated stories. In alphabetical order:

Now to more informal stuff.
I was inundated with literally 12 nominations for favourite authors. However, these were for the same 7 authors. Unfortunately, one of the authors nominated was for a story in the Mature Stories section. I feel it would be unfair to them to include them in the candidature for the award, as not everyone can acces their story. Thus there are six candidates for the award. I promised five, but I think it's easier just to not eliminate anyone. On a personal note, I think the stories we have nominated cover a really nice broad spectrum of story styles and topics. It's a massive honour + ego boost to be nominated alongside some of the people who inspired me to finally write a story. Everyone nominated (except possibly me) would definitely be justified in winning the award. I think it'll be really interesting to see who wins! Happy Voting, Hamps |
(donno if we should post our vote here but a teaser nonetheless)
I second my vote. |
It's up to people if they want to post their vote as well as polling.
I'm not sure I'll vote, it's too hard to choose :\ |
Don't take this the wrong way, but I think nominees should only sit & watch.
|
Mmm. It's ethical. And honourable. And I'll stop talking now.
|
Oi where is mine in the poll? it is the 2nd highest viewed story this year lol!
|
Voted, and good luck to everyone.

I too find it a great honor that I was even nominated, and even more that I'm getting votes. I really have to thank everyone, I'm glad so many people like my stories.

Well, there we have it Ladies and Gentlemen - by a whisker of 2.48% - I present to you the 2008 Story Teller's Choice Award Recipient:
Interesting! My heartiest congratulations to Interesting, and a very well done to all the other nominees (excluding myself, I don't boast). By the way - 42 votes. Coincidence or what? |
Oh! my God! I won! I really did! Wow! Ok huh...
I'd like to thank the Academy, God, everyone who voted for me... my time is up? I just got here. I want to thank my mom, uh, sex, 'cos without it I'd have nothing to write about, uh my wife (thanks for believing in me) and my girlfriend (for keeping everything below the radar). I'd like to thank Isaac Asimov and the Easter bunny... I won! Woooh....!!!! (says he being dragged off stage). Thank you everyone very much. |
Congratulations Interesting, it is truly an honor to have been on the same ballot as you.
I absolutely love your stories, and thank you for giving them to us. Good luck in all future projects, hopefully they will be as great as this one! --Coolio5 |
