The storySouth 2006 Million Writers Award, for short stories published on-line in 2005, will begin taking nominations on February 15. Watch this space for updates; I’ll be listing stories that I’ve read that I think should get a nod in the voting, and also a few stories of mine that meet the requirements.

Last year, my story Sunshine Over Helsinki, published in Failbetter, was on the list of Notable Stories of 2004, which was quite an honor. The winning stories of 2005 are listed here, all worth a read.

So catch up on your reading from 2005, and prepare to nominate a deserving story for the 2006 award!
