Just a reminder... Tomorrow morning, Mystery Ink will be announcing the winners of the 2006 Gumshoe Awards. Check the website for the list of nominees.
It's something of a cliche to say, but I really do believe that it is an honor just to be nominated for this or any award. The fine distinctions between the nominees are usually so small, and the final decisions so hard to make. Just getting to the point of being recognized as a nominee means that the work in question is truly one of merit.
So congrats to everyone who is nominated! You deserve a pat on the back.
