>storySouth Million Writers Award

>After a fairly steady stream of excuses about why it was taking so long, the editor of storySouth has finally opened the black box that he calls the Million Writers Award and announced the top ten online stories of 2007 which he selected from a list of 160 “Notable Stories” (of which my story, “The Hub,” was one). From among these ten, readers are invited to vote for their favorite. So check out the top ten and place your bets! I mean . . . cast your votes!
