.
Instead of your moderators coming up with three "themes" for the group to vote on ... we invite YOU to nominate a theme for next month. Could be a specific genre, a cover image, a title word, an author initial...

ONE nomination per member
To encourage participation the person who nominated LAST month's winning theme cannot nominate this month. So, Koren, you won't be able to submit a nomination (though you WILL be able to vote).

Deadline: 28 April 17 (or 5 nominations, whichever comes first)

Once the nominations are closed, we'll set up a poll for membership to vote on the theme for next month.


And our WINNING THEME is...

NOMINATED THEMES:
Cinco de Mayo - Set in Mexico (Patty)
Armed Forces Day / Memorial Day - Character in the military (Jaret)
Children's Day - Children are main character (Connie)

Police Officer Memorial - Police office is main char (Licha-Olivia)
International Workers Day - About social issues (Sushicat)
May the Fourth Be With You! - Main page genre: Science Fiction or Sci Fi (Brittany)

Okay ... I was sure I posted earlier today that I was putting up the poll.

Wonder what happened to that post?

We Have a Winner!

Police Officer Memorial - Police officer is main char (Licha-Olivia)

Note the main character must be a police officer /detective. NOT a private investigator.
