This is me, mind boggled.

TBE's on the list now, too.

You know how much I love TBE...I was scarred when it ended

Aw, Jen. I can maybe write an epilogue for you ...

Ladies, please note:

I just talked to HMonster, and if you have submitted noms, I would go resubmit. It looks like they didn't make it into the system, even if you got the confirmation email.

basically: FML.

Wait, was this after the glitch was fixed?

GO resubmit your entries just in case. None of mine made it through, and the conversation I had with HMonster was this morning. That's why they've extended the nomination time til noon tomorrow. They were expecting 1/3 the level of involvement that they've gotten, and it's overloading their servers.

*squee* the gal i beta for told me she got a PM from a reader of hers who said she was gonna Nom Right Side because my gallypally had recc'd it.

*smiles* just knowing someone else out there thought it was good (i think you are all biased lol loves you) makes me happy!

Stories by Category

So they didn't narrow anything down yet, but I suppose we shall see. Everything's just divided by category here.

I'm very intrigued about the last category. That's really a judgement call isn't it? But the list looks good. =D

I agree actually...one of the ones I checked out had only four stories published, and the "Indie" one had the most reviews by far O.o

i was wondering about that category too. kind of odd.

perhaps im a little concerned but some of the stories seem to got nominated in the wrong categories---for example: The Woods are Lovely, Dark and Deep got a nod for best use of comedy. Um, there's really only one scene that's comedic.

shame, nominators. lol

Thankfully, the people in charge of the awards are contacting authors to make sure they're in the right categories.

Attention MoWers:

Voting opens tonight at 9 P.M.

just saw on twitter that the voting isn't opening tonight at 9, but tomorrow at noon!

not sure of the reason for the change, but im sure our famous MoW'ers can talk to heather and get the scoop.

do i need to do the "cough?" i didnt think so.

The reason for the delay is that Gustariana is having internet issues and she's the one who will be doing the final posting of the polls.

Mmm, gotcha. I was wondering what was up.

All done voting

I have to wonder how much this will narrow it down when you can vote for 10 different stories in each category, but I'm sure they'll figure it out

MoW ladies all over the place.

Voted!

Good luck ladies!

I wonder the same.

I just voted as well.

i voted too! MoW ladies are all over that shit.

and thanks for voting, jen and di!

Done and done! I am definitely itching to see who gets to the next round.

I am intrigued. I was talking to whoever it is that answers the Indie Awards email and they said that some authors had their stories pulled from the awards. I wonder why that would be.
