The Fandom People Awards Nom Your Face


This is pretty exciting, y'all. We launched the Fandom People Awards and opened them up for nominations yesterday, September 6th. Woot!

There are categories that recognize the contributions of Authors, Readers, Betas, Artists, Twi-Site Bloggers, and members of the Twific community. We're asking people to think about the people who make this fandom such a great place to be.

Authors, who hooks it up with insightful reviews? Who goes out of their way to pimp the hell out of your story? Which pre-reader or Beta throws down the most helpful feedback?

Readers, which authors have the best review replies? Who are the most accessible authors on twitter?

Everybody:
Which banners are the hottest? the most creative? the most visually stunning? Who is the master manip-maker? blinkie-maker? banner-maker?

Which Twi-sites have the best recs? Where can you find the best resources for writing fic?

Who, in the Twific community, is the hardest working woman in show business? Who promotes the love throughout our fandom?

Think about these questions and GO SUBMIT YOUR NOMINATIONS! 

Remember that these are not your average awards. It's not a popularity contest, it's an opportunity to show love to the people who often get overlooked in this fandom.


QUESTIONS


Is there a central place where I can look at what banners are out there?
Here are just a few ideas of where you can go to check out some of the banners that are out there:

  • Many authors include in their FF.net profile the links to the banners, blinkies & art for their story.
  • On Twilighted.net the banners and art can be found directly on the authors' profiles.
  • The forums on Twilighted.net are also great resources because people always have tons of great banners as signatures for their posts.


Do I have to find 3 people to nominate for the categories with 3 spaces?
Nope. You can submit up to 3 people.



Can I go back and change my responses after I submit?
Yes. If your cookies are enabled, just return to http://www.twificpimps.com/fandompplawards/nominations/
