Horace James, here. I'm so psyched up about getting an honorable mention in this contest! But man, my fingernails are chewed to the second knuckle waiting for the results. 7 cents a word would have been nice. (Probably would have worked out to $.75/hour.)

Thanks.

Will these results be posted on the contest webpage any time soon?

They've been posed there since the last week of July:

Maybe you should link them off the original contest information page, http://chizine.com/c-stc14-pre.htm , or set up a redirect? I've been reloading that information page for two weeks, looking for any hint of the results.

Hmm, yeah, coulda done that. But the words "results are in" are beside the short story contest link on the main ChiZine page, as well:
