I posted this in another thread before this thread had been created, but this seems a more logical place for the post: Congratulations to all the Kerth winners. And to the runners-up: I imagine I was far from alone in having a tough time picking only one choice from each category; there were multiple Kerth-worthy nominations in most categories. I know that I was honoured just to have one of my stories included on the same list as the other nominees. So... Bravo or brava to each nominee and winner. Joy, Lynn

Congratulations to all the nominees and winners!

A writer's job is to think of new plots and create characters who stay with you long after the final page has been read. If that mission is accomplished than we have done what we set out to do, which is to entertain and hopefully educate.

I won? Thank you, thank you all who voted for me. I truly did not expect to win this year, given all the wonderful stories and skilled writers who shared their talents with us. I'd like to reiterate my thanks to my betas John Lambert, Morgana, Iolanthealias, and SciFiJoan. They all did yeoman's work helping me with this story, and they deserve a goodly amount of the credit. Hey, wait a minute - does this mean that I'm expected to contend again next year? I'd better get going on - something.

Congratulations to all the winners. I had a fantastic time at my first kerth awards.
I hope to be able to go again, but that all depends on it being early afternoon in USA for it to be evening rather than middle of the night for me. Although, I think there was someone there last night who was in a time zone even later than me.
Plus it was fantastic to see Corrina there as she had to get up waaaaay early.

Congratulations everybody!!
Reach for the moon, for even if you fail, you'll still land among the stars... and who knows? Maybe you'll meet Superman along the way.

Congratulations to all the winners!
I had a lot of fun at my first Kerth ceremony, sorry I had to leave so abruptly. I know you can't please everyone, but a slightly later timeslot would be brilliant next year... I know Corrina and I both had to get up well before dawn to attend and I'm sure we weren't the only ones. That said, it's gotta be hard when you're coordinating something like this literally right across the world!
