silwritersguild | MEFA announcement: Hard Time Reaching Some Authors

Several author liaisons and authors have reported that the emails telling them their stories have been nominated are getting caught in their spam filter. If you think it's possible that you will be nominated for the MEFAs please double-check your email's spam folder before you delete it. By default, all these emails will have the subject line "2006 Middle-earth Fanfiction Awards" (though some liaisons may personalize this.)

If you'd ever like to see whether your stories have been nominated you can do this by logging in to http://www.mefawards.net/MEFA2006/ (if you aren't a member click "login as guest"). Then click on "Browse Nominated Stories", and then click the column header "Author". This will sort the list of nominated stories alphabetically by the author name. Find your name on the list and this will tell you what stories by you have been nominated.

If you have a nominated story for which you have not received an email, or if you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to email me at mefasupport at gmail.com .

I have compiled a list of authors who may not have received their nomination emails. Please see:

Many of these authors have very legitimate reasons for not having replied, or possibly have replied and are still discussing their nominations with their liaisons. However, if you see your name on this list and have not received a nomination email please contact me at mefasupport at gmail.com .

Yours,
Marta (MEFA Admin)
