There's been a lot of activity during the first two days of voting for the 2009 storySouth Million Writers Award. So far over 300 people have voted for their favorite story. To vote or to see the totals, go here.

Now for my rant. Obviously someone out there thinks I'm stupid because they made a ham-fisted attempt to stuff the ballot box today. As I've said repeatedly, I closely monitor the voting and can easily see repeat voting. Even if someone uses--SHOCK!--proxy servers! When this happens, I remove the illegal votes, which is what I did a few minutes ago to this bone-headed idiot's votes. Please note that if this happens too much said story might be removed from the competition. So keep it honest, people!
