Quick begging post from me!

My game Victoriana is up for a 'Best Writing' Ennie (which I'm obviously rather pleased about :-)
so this is a quick plea to ask you to go and vote for Victoriana on the Ennies voting page.

The voting page is here:

My Hellcats and Hockeysticks is on the Indie rpg award list,
but my god have you seen the competition!
Not holding out any hope there :-)

Thanks guys

I just saw that you won runner up for best writing.

Is that a big deal? Does it deserve congrats?

Congrats anyway!

Victoriana is actually one of the few games that I own in real life (not a PDF). I like this game and I'm glad that it got kudos.

Wow! You wrote Hellcats and Hockey Sticks? I am very impressed! When I was looking up PostModern/Conceptual/Non-Traditional RPGs, I stumbled across an interesting site (which I cannot remember) that featured your game prominently alongside Life with Master and another really strange, small focus game where slutty girls try to break out of their trashy circumstances.

Corone is a professional RPG writer that got ensnared in the free movement, the silly fellow. When reading 'Doom and Cookies', I like to think I bought it.

I'm glad to have him! The free movement allows for much more open design!

Aww shuck guys... :-)
We're all writers here and I'm in very worthy company!
Its great to be part of a community where its all about the games and the ideas.

Thanks for everyone who dropped in a vote for Victoriana,
the Ennies are pretty much the only big awards in the industry so it was great for Victoriana to win one.
The nominations are picked by a panel of voted in judges to level the playing field,
then the public gets to cast a vote which often means the best selling games win
(hence Pathfinder walking away this year with almost everything!)

It was especially cool to get the award presented by Margaret Weis,
she offered some seminal words of wisdom: Keep writing, keep reading, and keep your day job :-)
