"It's easy to see why these stories and poems are winners. I know from reading ALM that I would hate to be a judge! The stories are excellent and you are taken on a ride of highs and lows - some of the stories and poems will make you laugh and some will make you sad. But they are all winners. I am really impressed and hope some of the stories will someday be turned into books."
