Only three more days before voting ends for this year's Million Writers Award. While the votes are still close, it now appears to be a three way race between the following stories:
- "No Bullets in the House" by Geronimo Madrid (Drunken Boat) 15%
- "Fuckbuddy" by Roderic Crooks (Eyeshot) 17%
- "The Fisherman's Wife" by Jenny Williams (LitNImage) 19%
In addition, "Interview With A Moron" by Elizabeth Stuckey-French (Narrative Magazine) is close behind at 13%. Remember, voting closes at 11:59 p.m. on June 17, so go read the stories and cast your vote--but only one vote, because duplicate votes will be removed! Note the intimidating bold font used in that last statement. I have already removed a number of votes over the last two days due to a few people voting multiple times.
Thanks to the generosity of numerous donors, this year's award features the following monetary prizes:
- Overall winner: $500
- Runner-up: $200
- Honorable mention (third place): $100
