On To Year Four
In a few days the fourth annual Men of Middle-earth Awards will begin! I hope everyone's looking forward to another year. Nominations will be accepted between July 15 and August 31, so start sifting through your bookmarks, memories, and favorite comms and get your list of fics together. There will be a post available for pointing readers to your fic or recommendation lists; it should be up in about a week.
If you have any questions about the categories, the process, eligibility, etc., please leave a comment here or send me an e-mail.

When I'm nominating fics in the word count section can I just put what category they fall into...drabble, ficlet, short fic, etc. or do I have to have an actual word count?

The actual count is best because unfortunately people often don't put the right fic size down. I've caught quite a lot through random checks and then wound up trying to check them all just to be safe. If you hit 8k and there are only a couple of chapters left it would be fine to say '8k+ (less than 50k),' and once you hit 50k it's fine to stop. In the past I've also suggested that for really long fics that nominators ask the author for the word count (since it's easier for them to get it). I haven't heard of any negative responses to those requests so I'm assuming people have been ok with it.
