None of these stories remain online- they were only there during the quarter in which they appeared- and there were several amazing stories that we presented that were under the 1000 word count that you listed in your rules...I wish I could nominate more- but I do understand. Thank you for a chance to make a comment about a few of the stories that we have been privileged to offer readers online- and for having this format in which to show our writers how much we appreciate their hard work!
