    And I am very grateful for that :) :)
    Your vote made me guess that A Promise of Hope was yours ;)

    Congratulations with yet another win.
    One vote for five stories is still the most unfortunate to work with.
    At least all stories ended in the top three :D

    Grrr, !mrahil

    I must admit it's not an easy task to always live up to your own standards of quality. :p

    When I first started writing stories for this place, I included elements of British-English spelling simply because I thought it would make my writing sound fancier. Now after a lot more years of writing experience under my belt, I can safely say AMERICAN is best. (i'm an american btw)

    Spawning and Bob and I had a running gag of razzing each other for using the wrong spelling whenever British and American English differed.

    When I parodied his work, I made sure to use British English.

    Early October or late September. We go on a three month cycle. Month of submission, month of reading, month off.
