HOLLYWOOD, Calif., March 18 /PRNewswire/ -- The second round of the 1st Quarter Honorable Mentions of the L. Ron Hubbard Writers of the Future Contest 2010 were announced today. The quarter ended on the 31st of December and the initial judging process of reading all of the stories and deciding the category of each has been ongoing since mid-January by the coordinating judge, K.D. Wentworth.
Stories that received Honorable Mention status will not go on for final judging but were good enough to merit acknowledgement for being well written.
"Out of the thousands of stories that get submitted to the contest, a small percentage make it this far," Wentworth said.
