That would be a good reason. :D

ok, another question. All of these nominations ask for the author of story and e-mail address... What if we don't know the e-mail? All of my noms will be from AC authors, and you can just PM them, so what should I put there?

You can always just put the link to their AC profile to make it easier for us. That way we're only one click away from a contact without having to search for people's pennames.

ok, will do. :)

Post by: mare on October 16, 2007, 09:44:31 PM
yeah that's no big deal I just kind of put it there because it seemed like it should be. lol if there's no email address it's not the end of the world. We do need URLS for stories though.
Title: Re: Let the nominating begin!!
Post by: honey on October 16, 2007, 09:53:17 PM
k, I just sent my list to all three of you at once. That does work, right? Let me know if all three of you don't get it.

Post by: LenniluvsBrian on October 17, 2007, 12:19:40 AM
Ha. I stated in my nominations that I only knew the emails of people I couldn't nominate - haha. I'd love to nominate ForeverRebel, but can't since I'm kinda her co-writer every so often - lol. But, I'm glad the no email knowledge doesn't hinder out nominations! [did this sentence sound as brilliant as I think it did? Or am I imagining things?]
