KW ANTHOLOGY IV: WE HAVE OUR SELECTION TEAM

Post by aTOMiC »

We now have our selection committee in place.
The KW members that have volunteered for this exciting task are:
dANdeLION, Variol Son & Murrin

You may remember them from such classics as Kevin's Watch Anthology 3.

Thank you all for your service. It is much appreciated.

In the interest of keeping the proceedings as fair as possible I would ask that no gifts be sent to members of the selection team. These Watcher's have the highest integrity and will be offended if they receive gold watches, diamonds, stocks, bonds, free gasoline, adult beverages, computers, Big screen televisions, rare coins, extra bodily organs and so on.

Your submissions will be evaluated as impartially as possible. :biggrin:

I can easily get a key lime pie 90 minutes away to Tampa.

...Britain and New Zealand would take some creative packaging...

Whilst I'm not accepting bribes of any sort, I will say that from my perspective a spelling and grammar check will greatly improve the chances of your piece being selected.
You do not hear, and so you cannot be redeemed.

In the name of their ancient pride and humiliation, they had made commitments with no possible outcome except bereavement.

He knew only that they had never striven to reject the boundaries of themselves.

Surely not! The ability to write is required for success in the writing contest? :o

Oh assuredly. ;) However, I have noticed in the past a tendency for talent to get lost in a myriad of spelling mistakes and bad grammar. :D

Pft, the woman was insane. And not in a good way. ;)

Seriously though folks, ol' F7 will give your talent a better chance of being appreciated. Technical ability, originality and a gripping plotline may not mean much if I'm struggling to understand what I'm reading. :)
