Hi,
I didn´t vote for Fanfic because I haven´t read any of these ones you listed. You´d have to post a poll with 2500 stories so it would be fair enough.
The author´s stories thing, though I haven´t seen mine there (i guess i´d vote for my baby ESM... afterall it´s mine.lol) I would vote for Aria´s new piece, Wedding Consequences by Nan, A Gift for Life by SQD, Lost Child by kitty and Jen, and Sarah´s piece Wherever You Will Go.
This is a *very* limited poll that may hurt some feelings. (...) I can see this being painful for the people whose stories aren't included and also possibly for the people who don't get many votes.
I totally agree with Laura with this. This is quite hard to post because I don´t see how people can truly not feel hurt not being mentioned. Well, I am.. (kind of) And if I were Lea, Aria and other newbies just like me... of course I´d understand that there are other amazing writers much more talented to be nominated here, but still...not being at least mentioned wouldn´t be fair enough.
I hope I´ve made some point here. My limited English forces me not to say everything I´d want to.
MDL.
