Poll Underway until November 1
As requested by multiple members, there is a poll currently underway
regarding whether or not to allow self-published stories to be considered for
the Derringers. This is a simple up or down vote based on Bobbi Chukran’s motion
seconded by SMFS VP Larry Chavis.
Members may access the poll here:
https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/Shortmystery/polls/open
If the measure passes, the mechanics of accepting self-published work will be discussed and membership will be polled.
If the measure does not pass, we will follow the precedent of the previous administration and table the issue until after Bouchercon 2017.

SMFS President
