The way the judging criteria works is that readers and writers have to place a +1 on the story they are interested in voting.
The only thing to keep in mind is that the writers can not vote on the story that they entered in the awards to it will not count, and your entery will be disqualified. Also, as readers and writers are the ones voting, we believe that everyone should have the opportunity to see different stories, not just the creators of the awards. There is no limit as to how many votes readers and writers can give the only thing that will be asked if readers and writers can not vote the same story twice. And writers cannot vote their own story.
Also, writers, please do not make your readers vote for your story. Although you may publicly notify your readers and writer friends about our awards to learn more about our page.
There will be more information about the criteria and dates later on today. We will also have a place for all readers and writers to place their questions so that The Creative Writing Team can answer along the way. It will be called 'Question Section.'
