I think the hollers are in West Virginey or Kaintuck, Vern, but I take your point. Segregating writers on the basis of geography, unless it's just for fun or kinship, doesn't sit right with me. Still like to get feedback on any Vermonters out there, though.

Actually, I had my tongue in my cheek when posting that, but what the hey? Maybe Ann had a good idea going.

Congratulations, Janet. Is your mother still alive?

Way to go, Randy!

Regarding the above, as an example, three of my books today rose several thousand ranks each. (Amazon claims to update this figure hourly.) But I'm not expecting big royalty checks as a result.

Sol, none of my books are on the list: Get the Picture?, The Side Effect, The Flame, The Sincerest Form of Flattery, Skeleton Run (workshopped here as Teammates), and How Little We Know.

Jeez, Sol, judges that don't get back to you? And the winner to be decided by less than a full judge panel? I've got no dog in this fight, but this isn't right - and not what the entrants signed up for. Those judges who have gone AWOL should not be asked to participate in the future.

Different strokes for different folks. I find it more tedious to have to go back to all the comments and make adjustments to stuff I may have posted months earlier. Plus, with my plot already completed, I'd have a built-in bias not to change it in any material way. Sometimes I get suggestions that make me change the direction of the plot - something I couldn't do if it were already wrapped up in a bow, except for doing little tweaks here and there. But I must say you're prolific and your approach has been working for you, proving there are many ways to skin a cat.  Jack

Wikipedia gives Serling credit for the TV movie with the same name as his book. I know Air Force One crashes in it, but I can't remember - did they find out the plane had been hijacked?

Witness would have been a good one, since you did include movies.

If we could have gone farther back in time, the selections would have been easier.

Maybe I missed it, but I didn't see any feedback from the last quiz.
