Here are the nominations received so far in this year's Due Credit Awards.
A few people sent me stinky mail while I was gone (not
insulting...virus-laden), so my system was down for a few days during my
absence. Any nominations sent during those two or three days did not
register. If you nominated something, but don't see it here, chances are it
was lost. Please bear with me and send it again.

Email addresses are listed beside most nominees for Best Author or Best New
Author. If you have been nominated, but would rather notifications be sent
to another address, or if your email address is different from that listed,
please email me with the correction. I must have the address of EVERY
candidate in those categories. The nominees listed with no email address,
but a star beside their names were nominees in which the nominator neglected
to provide either the author's address, or their own. If anyone knows the
addresses of these authors, please email me and let me know.

I have received multiple notifications that the "Best Slash NC-17" category
is unavailable due to page error. This will be remedied as soon as
possible. Due to this, I will be extending the nomination period for THAT
CATEGORY ONLY an additional ten days.

Also, Crysothemsis has requested that she and her stories be removed from
consideration. I have done so, and would request that as of this
notification, no further stories by this author be nominated.

There are only 8 days of nominating time remaining, so if a story or author
you love is not on this list, you'd better visit the page and nominate
quickly!

Please pass this message on to any other Due South related list or
newsgroup.
