Origins Awards

Okay, thanks to a mysterious juror who reads this blog and can identify himself if he wants, I now have the criteria for the Origins awards. The deadline for these puppies is January 31 so if you want to submit, you'd better get cracking.

Cost of submitting: 7 copies. Yowch! That's $140 for me. :-(
