Fic and recommendation lists

[foxrafer.livejournal.com]

Please consider putting together a list of your own fics and/or those stories you've enjoyed reading that you'd like to bring to everyone's attention. If you have time, including word counts and dividing the fics by pairing would be wonderful but this isn't required. Please remember only stories completed between July 1, 2008 and June 30, 2009 are eligible; in the classic fiction category they must have been completed by December 31, 2007.

Leave a comment below with a link to the recommendation list in your journal. This way everyone on your friends list (regardless of whether they are currently members of this comm) will be able to see it. Or, if you'd prefer, you can list the stories directly in this post. Obviously, nominations will not only be limited to these stories. But this will be a good place for everyone to start if they don't have a favorites list of their own.

Thanks for your help. Nominations will be accepted from July 15 - August 31.

Nominations are now open!

Nominations are now being accepted for the Men of Middle Earth Awards!

A pairing will only become its own category if it receives at least five distinct nominations in a specific fic size. If awards are going to be presented to as wide a variety of pairings as possible, it's important that we receive a lot of nominations.

Nomination Tip: If you know of at least three ficlets (or drabbles, short fiction, etc.) in your favorite pairing that you consider to be exceptional and worthy of recognition, consider nominating all three and not just the one you like the most. That way you can almost guarantee that pairing will have its own category in that particular fic size.

You don't have to be a member to submit a story. So spread the word, find those exemplary stories and nominate, nominate, nominate!
