(ADMIN) Story Focus - Humor and Romance Posted by Marta September 19, 2009 - 15:13:29 Topic ID# 10203Hey guys,
It seems I'm a bit late again. :-) Thanks for bearing with me as I adjust to
the school semester starting again.
This week's admin post will spotlight the humor and romance pieces that
competed in this year's MEFAs. Those of you who have had pieces compete in
the awards, know that authors can select three main categories to describe
the piece. (Main categories cover genres as well as races and time periods.)
What follows are stories that selected Humor or Romance as one of those main
categories.
***********************
