Seems like a million ...

  ... years ago, but our 2007 short story contest was held just three months ago (in January) and the two winners were published in the print edition of The News and online in early February.

This week -- finally - we will post on Buffalonews.com all the stories that made the final round of judging.

There are nine for you to read, all written by local authors with day jobs. The setting for the stories was the Temple of Music on the grounds of the Pan-American Exposition in 1901, the day President McKinley was shot.

I'll let you know when these pieces of historical fiction are posted. They are fascinating to read and offer real insight into Buffalo's past.
