I'm Sanumi. But my Pen Name is Cassiopeia Lestrange. I joined Wattpad on the 21st of January 2024, so it's just been 4 months since I joined. I Joined Mellonia on the 19th of April. I haven't started judging in the Mellonia community yet.

Yes, I have judged the Science Category in the Tulip Awards.
I look for Grammatical mistakes and the plot while judging.

It's because it's one of the only roles I have experience in.
I once made the mistake of not reading my review twice.

No, the book's main part is the content, so it's vital. The cover doesn't matter actually.

I check the results repeatedly until I find it fair and satisfying. I'm very conscious about such things as fairness.
I usually check their plot twist and consistency, grammar, cover, title, and character development.

I find it overdone and cliche when some fan fiction has too much extra information, that in the end, the plot doesn't even make sense. And I find books that contain new and creative plots, not overused ones, original and unique.
I hate to see smut parts because of my age.

Judging my first book was tough because I wasn't sure if I was being fair.
If a writer isn't happy with my judgement, I'd listen to their feedback and try to understand their perspective better.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗽𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗮𝘀𝗽𝗶𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗷𝘂𝗱𝗴𝗲𝘀? 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗱𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝗻𝘆 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝗷𝘂𝗱𝗴𝗲 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝘂𝘁?
Common traps for aspiring judges might include being too swayed by personal biases, rushing judgments without careful consideration, and feeling pressure to conform to popular opinions. My advice would be to stay open-minded, always strive for fairness, take the time to thoroughly evaluate each piece, and don't be afraid to ask for input or clarification when needed.

𝗧𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸 𝘆𝗼𝘂! 𝗗𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗮𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀?
To aspiring writers seeking judgment on their work, remember that feedback, whether positive or constructive, is an opportunity for growth. Keep writing, keep learning, and most importantly, believe in the power of your voice. Every critique is a chance to improve and refine your craft. Keep going!
