Hey FoLCs!

I know it’s still 2011 but it’s also time to start thinking about the 2012 Kerth Awards.

The Kerth committee for 2012 is Annette Ciotola, Elena and Tricia Walpole but we couldn’t do it without all the FoLCs who dedicate their time and energy to making this ceremony even more fun. Amber and Nancy will be coordinating and organising the quizzes. They will be asking for some volunteers to help very soon. So keep a look out for their post. Karen, Amber and Nancy will be coordinating the Kerth Ceremony. Kathy MacFarlane, our external auditor, continues to help us tally the votes. And most of all, we’ve got all the writers and readers, without whom the awards wouldn’t exist at all! And if there’s still a question we haven’t answered, feel free to email me. We’ll be happy to help you!


The Kerth Committee
(Tricia, Elena and Annette)

Thank you, Annette, Elena and Tricia for all of the work you will be doing to ensure that we will have a fun evening.

Joy,
Lynn

I have a question that has bugged me for awhile. Why is there no category for "Best Long Story"? In other words, ones that are more than 200k. (Not that I'm complaining or anything. I was just wondering.)

Actually, I thought there was a category for "Best Long Story" too!

You know that is a very good question. I can think of a couple of authors who have written some really cool fics in years past who should be so honored.

Any thoughts in that direction Dr. Klein? Labrat?

Hey, don't look at me. I have no clue.

All I can suggest is that I seem to recall there being such a category in past Kerths, but these things are fluid and change from year to year. In the past, the main reason for dropping a category, IIRC, has been there haven't been enough stories to make up a full cat. Whether that's the case this year for this cat, I have no idea.

I understand that Tricia is on vacation and out of town until the end of January, but perhaps someone else from K-Comm can give you an answer before then.
