| Smartdude, have you considered sending that particular piece in to be evaluated for the Pulitzer? Honestly you are not a shoo-in or anything but you definitely will have a chance! After all, you are REALLY smart. | |

| ^^^ Whoa...that's REALLY early compared to last year. Congratulations, though! What categories did you enter?
If they really have started mailing the RAL stuff, I'm going to be pretty nervous over the next couple of days. | |

| ac37 -- That's odd.. Is your gold key in art or in writing?
On my sheet it says: "On Thursday, May 8, 2008, the Gold Key and Silver Key award recipients will be celebrated at Radiant Minds, the NYC regional awards ceremony. The ceremony will be held at Columbia University's Alfred Lerner Hall in the Arledge Auditorium located at 2920 Broadway." | |

Has ANYBODY heard anything about the short-short-story word limit being changed? I swear to God it was 3,000 when I submitted it, but they changed it to 1,300 afterwards and nobody's responding to my emails about it.
| wow, this applies to me as well. i sent in a short story just under 3k one around 1,500... blahhhh. oh well, maybe it was a typo? how could they possibly change the requirements after the fact? :/ | |
