I actually had someone ask me for pictures of the "medals" I described in the January Silver Clitorides Awards Presentation, so I thought about it, and...

Section 4 Ye Heavenly Hosts
Alt Sex Stories Text Repository [ASSTR] - http://www.asstr-mirror.org/. Home of over 500 of the Net's best erotic authors and home of this web page. Operated as a non-profit organization, ASSTR provides free hosting and is the archive for the newsgroup Alt.Sex.Stories.Moderated and mirrors other collections.
Stories Online - http://www.storiesonline.net. A privately owned hosting service by Lazeez Jiddan. Has completely free access, but rising costs have resulted in a fee for advanced search and similar utilities.
Ruthie's Club - http://www.ruthiesclub.com. A for-profit pay site. Ruthie's Club is an ASSTR and Stories Online alumni society for arguably some of the better authors in recent memory, and new stories are very lightly illustrated. This is not an endorsement, merely an opinion.
Are we having fun yet? That's a Server Challenge Medal, An Editor's Medal, from which I'll probably dangle a gold crab. (What? Curmudgeon, not crustacean? Works either way, I think.) Possible replacements for the Pendragon Medals, Maybe an Easter Challenge or a Big Hopper Medal.
The girls at the beach? Maybe I just think naked women at the beach deserve a medal!
