January Story of the Month

The first month of the new year saw some big developments for the site, including the banning of fmscout.com by image-hosting site imgur and the subsequent development of new site fmshots.com for the use of the FM Scout community. This month we see some familiar faces battle it out for SOTM in what could be a spell of dominance for one particular writer.

The 5 nominated stories for Story of the Month, as nominated by our 5 judges, are as follows:

#1. Adam Chabukiani - Defying The Odds

The whole process has been really frustrating me lately so anything that motivates me to keep going is very welcome at the moment.

Thanks for the nomination guys but I'm torn between Jack & Murtagh this month. Decisions, decisions.....]]> Fri, 01 Jan 2016 21:22:48 -0000 tenthreeleader - Story of the Month - December
For me, I know running three stories at a time will reduce my chances but at the same time, this is what I love to do and I love to share with readers. Thanks to those who follow along and comment.

My vote this month goes to Murtagh, though -- nice to see new blood in the ranks and it looks to be a nice tale!

And also, thanks to Walter for the kind words about my work on the ballot page. They, too, are greatly appreciated.]]> Fri, 01 Jan 2016 19:02:03 -0000
