Contest Update
UPDATED 4-13-09 ... Brian of The New Author has stopped, suspended, halted all voting in the First Annual Poetry / Short Story Contest. It seems that the poll may have been tampered with and he has therefore acquired anonymous judges to take over in lieu of pier voting for the best Short Story and Poem. The decision is still expected to come in sometime on Friday.
It is a shame that even suspecting unscrupulous behavior has marred his first contest. I hope the alleged possibility of tampering turns out to be a mistake. I also hope this will not affect his decision to hold further contests, in what has become a large writing community surrounding The New Author blog that itself has managed to be so helpful to.
thank you to those of you that went over there to read and cast a vote whether it was my way or note.
Now the fate of my poem and the others as well as the short stories lies in the hands of judges.

Could be I suppose, but I think there was issue with the Short Story part too. I would like to win-hope to of course, but my world would not be over if I didn't. I just really hate that Brian's first contest has resulted in question on the fairness of poll-voting especially so early on.
thank you all for your well wishes
