hard-to-reach authors list #2 Posted by Marta June 19, 2011 - 15:03:53 Topic ID# 10864
Hey guys,

The following authors (a) have stories that have been nominated at
least a week, and (b) have neither started their forms or contacted
their liaisons to let them know they've been nominated.

Eldalie (liaison: Maethril, warriorprincess01fanficATgmailDOTcom)
Jay of Lasgalen (liaison: elliska, elliska67ATyahooDOTcom)
Permilea (liaison: elliska, elliska67ATyahooDOTcom)

If you know any of these authors, please have them get in touch with
the noted liaison. If they have trouble reaching the liaison - or if
they just need help logging in - have them drop me a line at
supportATmefawardsDOTorg.

On a related note, I'd really like to encourage people to nominate
their favorite pieces. At this moment we have 330 pieces nominated in
the 2011 MEFAs, of which 181 are completely ready to compete. That may
sound like a lot, but given that there's just about a week and a half
to go in nominations we are lagging a bit behind previous years. Some
of that is undoubtedly the fact that the Tolkien fandom has slowed
down a bit as time has passed from the movies, and that's fine. But I
know there's a lot of good fanfic still being produced, and I would
hate for it not to be nominated. In light of that, it might be fun to
give yourself a little challenge. Think of your three favorite Tolkien
pieces you're read in the last year - stories, poems, essays,
drabbles, whatever. Then check whether they've been nominated yet, and
if not, go ahead and nominate them. It's a great way to make the
author's day and contribute to the MEFAs at the same time.

Remember: nominations close at 11:59 PM GMT on June 30. If you need
help getting started email me at supportATmefawardsDOTorg.

Marta
MEFA Admin.

Hi Marta,

Eldalie had gotten in contact with me after I sent her an email explaining
the situation of her story in the MEFAs. She is in an incredibly busy state
right now, with exams looming barely a few days ahead, and she has asked me
for instructions on aspects of her nomination.

Thanks,
Maethril

Hi Marta,

I'll give Permilea a nudge.
