Why do you feel that way, Nadja...? Do you need a cookie and hugs? By the way:

I feel like a jerk. I clicked on the link in my mail (I'm crazy, I actually allow for email notifications) and it took me to the comment after I had last posted. Sorry! Anyway, the L. Ron Hubbard contest (if you haven't come across the answer already) is a SF/Fantasy contest that's been around since the 80's. It isn't exclusive to writers, but artists too. They publish an annual anthology from the top submissions they get. The contest has four quarters held throughout the year. Top quarterly prize is $1k. Annual prize is $5k. It's pretty sweet, but competition is fierce since it's one of the most prestigious contests there are. Big-name writers in the SF/F genre act as judges. I doubt my piece will make it, but I'm hoping to submit something much better next quarter--that starts in April!

RF: I can be as scornful as my mother when someone crosses a line with me. Scary.

I'm going to kick myself for admitting this - two names already come to mind of people who will literally piss themselves laughing when they read this - but today a man in a white van (read very dumb) was trying to chat up my friend when he asked if I was her mum! I was not amused to say the least!

In November in my local supermarket I was asked for ID for Lotto, cigarettes, fireworks and alcohol!!! Once I was asked for ID when purchasing Iburpofren too. All I can say is, the bloke in the white van must be very short-sighted, and dumb.
