World Idol, Round 2

[MonsterMoofie]

I'd like to get our World Idol contest going again.

(Open only to Jo, Beth, Kogasgirl, Cheile, Katesfire and Ivy)

I'd welcome input on the 'how to' parts but for now here are my thoughts.

If all of you who already submitted could get your story up somewhere, then post the link here. When we have all of them I'll get them in one post for everyone's convenience. Once the submission time is done we'll tell you which of your stories made the cut (each of the 6 will have 1 as a finalist unless someone elects not to participate so it's a matter of us chosing between 2 stories each person can submit).

Then, once you know the finalists we'll give you some time to review and then I'll open voting--to be PMd to me. I will acknowledge your PM so make sure you get a reply.

I thought of a poll but I decided not to make a habit of that--I'm not worried about all of you in WI but (to my knowledge) we can't tell who votes what in a poll and I am concerned to monitor against self-votes--again, not among the 6 of you--I already know you wouldn't.

Now here's what I want to know what you think....

I'm considering (remember, we're going with top 4) allowing each voter to vote for their top 3 favorite writers.

Feedback?

(Submissions won't start for about a week.)

I think your ideas are a good one and for anyone who does not have a website of their own, I would be happy to temporarily post their fic on my site for the contest if they were to need somewhere to host it if it were emailed to me in MSWord .doc format pre-beta'ed.

I think we'll try to pick this up once we get settled into Fan Nation.

Those of you that haven't submitted your stories, write, write, write!
