hard-to-reach authors - May 31 Posted by Marta May 31, 2009 - 17:58:27 Topic ID# 9974
Hey guys,

Every year I prepare a weekly list of the authors that I think might
not have heard about their MEFA nominations. Or, if they've heard,
their response back to their liaison is getting lost in the intarwebz.
I ask that if you know any of these authors, please contact them and
have them get in touch with their liaisons. (Email address included
below.) If they do not hear back in 2-3 days, please have them contact
me at mefasupportATmefawardsDOTnet.

In theory, this list includes authors that had at least one story
nominated a week or more ago, and who have not begun any of their
nomination forms or otherwise indicated to their liaisons that they
want to compete. That's in theory, and there are several reasons
--good ones-- why an author could show up on this list without doing
anything wrong. Like I said, maybe emails have gotten lost somewhere
along the way. They may be thinking about whether they want to compete
and haven't made up their mind yet. Or there may be some
miscommunication between the liaisons and myself. This list is
intended as a "warning" more than a slap on the wrist.

That said, if you're on this list it's probably a decent idea to email
your liaison (or me) to make sure your story isn't withdrawn. If more
than two weeks pass and you don't contact your liaison or start your
form, your nomination *MAY* be withdrawn. We give nominators this
option, so they can use all of their twenty nominations on stories
that will actually compete. To assure that your story stays nominated
please email your liaison or begin your form within two weeks of being
contacted, even if you're still deciding whether to compete or not.
(You still get until July 7 to complete the nomination process.)

Anyway - to the list! Here are authors that we would like to hear from.

Avon (liaison: foxrafer (csevans8), foxraferATgmailDOTcom)
Branwyn (Lady Branwyn) (liaison: elliska, elliska67ATyahooDOTcom)
EdorasLass (liaison: Nancy Brooke, nbATnancybrookeDOTcom)
Eggo Waffles (liaison: Dwimordene, dwimmer_laikATyahooDOTcom)
Eiranae (liaison: brindlemom2(Gilnaur), brindlemom2ATyahooDOTcom)
Eledhwen (liaison: elliska, elliska67ATyahooDOTcom)
Geale (liaison: brindlemom2(Gilnaur), brindlemom2ATyahooDOTcom)
Golden (liaison: brindlemom2(Gilnaur), brindlemom2ATyahooDOTcom)
grey_wonderer (liaison: Nancy Brooke, nbATnancybrookeDOTcom)
Indigo Bunting (liaison: Dreamflower, aelfwinaATgmailDOTcom)
Kenaz (liaison: brindlemom2(Gilnaur), brindlemom2ATyahooDOTcom)
Lothithil (liaison: aranelgoldenflower, aranelgoldenflowerATyahooDOTcoDOTuk)
mir_noldoris (liaison: Dreamflower, aelfwinaATgmailDOTcom)
Peredhil lover (liaison: aranelgoldenflower,
aranelgoldenflowerATyahooDOTcoDOTuk)
pipkinsweetgrass (liaison: aranelgoldenflower,
aranelgoldenflowerATyahooDOTcoDOTuk)
Rianiel (liaison: elliska, elliska67ATyahooDOTcom)
vladazhael (liaison: elliska, elliska67ATyahooDOTcom)

If you know anyone on this list, please have them get in touch with
the noted liaison.

I've tried to contact Eledhwen and mir_noldoris via LJ. (Eledhwen is "torn_eledhwen' over there, and Nol goes by "applegnat" on LJ.) With any luck, their liasons will be hearing from them both very soon! Unfortunately I don't know any of the others.

I'll see if I can get hold of Golden. She's finishing up a term in college, and
has an aunt who is ill with cancer, so she's been much distracted.

A quick note: Thank you to everyone who is trying to reach these
members.I appreciate all your efforts.

I won't be replying to everyone individually who says that he/she is
trying to contact certian members (like this email), so I don't flood
the group. :-) But if any authors email me at
mefasupportATmefawardsDOTnet I will certainly reply, and I'm sure the
liaisons will do likewise.

I know how to get in touch with Lothithil in ways that don't include email. Since I nominated her tale, I would like to help see that she gets going on it! I don't believe she's a MEFA member, so I don't think she'll see this list, so I'll drop her a note, if that's okay.

I nominated one story by Mir_Noldoris, aka Earmire. She actually has input data into at least one of her story forms - she's got a summary up and a few other things for "Sight". So some activity has occurred - perhaps her e-mail is simply acting up?

Hi,

Peredhil lover has replied, all is good :D - there was just a little confusion over the form (aka, neither of us had thought to change the status to 'author has replied but not begun form')

I see that she has emailed in accepting both nominations now. So it
looks like there is progress being made on that front.
