I was heartened to see that SOL's own Investigative Committee on Fairness to Writers (ICFW) is looking into the entire "Frontiers" imbroglio.
Background … my latest story - a Western - was recently Reviewed on this site.
And, as several haters gleefully pointed out, "Frontiers" earned only 18 out of a possible 30 points:
> Plot: 9
> Reviewer Appeal: 9
> Technical Quality: N/A
I assume N/A means North America. Which means "Frontiers" wasn't eligible to earn points in Europe, Africa … um, Patagonia, and other countries.
While my three remaining readers were outraged, understandably so, at this very public slight, I myself pay absolutely no attention to reader scores.
Above it all,
Paige
