Million Writers Award vote extended by one day

Tonight at 11:59 pm Eastern time was supposed to be the end of the public vote for this year's storySouth Million Writers Award. However, the storySouth website went down for nearly a day last week, resulting in much anguish and emailing to me about the inability to vote.

To make up for this problem, I'm extending the public vote by one day. The voting will now end at 11:50 pm on Tuesday, Aug. 7. To vote go here.  For the most recent vote tally, go here.

This year we have nearly $1000 in cash prizes for the top three winners, along with

  • A $100 gift certificate from ThinkGeek for the overall winner;
  • Free books from Dzanc Books for the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners (Dzanc Books also generously contributed to the overall prize money);
  • A $50 gift card to Powells.com for the third place winner, sponsored by writingprompts.us.
