I have a few things I need to cover, so I'll put them in order.

Sorry about the wait! If I was a contestant I probably would've forgotten about the awards by now because you guys had to wait until we actually released them (and that happened to be a crazy long time). As the judge who judged four categories I didn't forget, but a lot of it was waiting for other judges because I know they're busy. Anyway, it means a lot that we had so many entries and we're really thankful for those who participated and put up with us. 😂😊

How Reviews Will Be Released is kind of complicated. I can't tag people on my phone very well so I put your names in the titles (so you'll find your book scrolling through the Table of Contents). Instead of us sending the reviews to you through private messaging, I've decided to put them in a separate book called The Snow Awards Book Reviews. I mentioned that before but I figured it wouldn't hurt to say it again just in case. We'll announce readers in this book with their scores, but their actual reviews will be with everybody else's.

How Winners Will Be Announced is pretty straightforward. Each day starting tomorrow, I'll announce the three winners of one category (going in order starting with the First Category). After that, all of the reviews will be put in the other book. If you're a winner and you want a sticker on your cover (I made new ones that I haven't released) just PM me and I'll send the link to it. After the winners are announced and the reviews have been released, we'll put the winning stories in the reading list.

Interviews will no longer be a prize for winners. I thought this was a great idea when I first heard it, but I can't work with that. Obviously it's not anyone else, it's just that we wouldn't be able to find time and I have a good feeling that it would be pretty messy.

If you don't like how your review turned out, you can comment or PM your judge (or me) but we won't reply. This is to prevent conflict. Obviously we won't stop you from commenting or saying anything, but we're not going to be obligated to respond.

All of the Stories Were Amazing! I loved all of my stories and the other judges felt that way too. Even if you don't win, don't be discouraged! Always keep writing because you can just make more progress and win other competitions from here. Thank you for entering, and hopefully our reviews will help you!

If anyone has any questions, feel free to PM me!
