Hello fellow Whyvillians! I am thrilled to announce the nominees for the fourth annual Whyville Times Awards. 2010 was a great year for the Times. Before we announce the nominees I want you all to know how much your hard work is appreciated.
It would be wonderful if we could give an award to every writer, because you all definitely deserve it. We've had some great new writers emerge, and have also had some veterans return. But one thing is true about every writer we have: your passion and commitment is what makes this paper great!
