As previously stated, the first round of the Portkey Readers' Choice Awards is reader nominations. In this thread, nominate eligible fics and authors for the awards of:

* Best Novel-length Fic (Romance or Comedy)
* Best Novel-length Fic (Drama)
* Best Short Fic (Fluff)
* Best Short Fic (Angst)
* Best Short Fic (Humor)
* Best Short Fic (Smut)
* Best New Author

As a brief refresher, a fic is eligible if it is hosted here at Portkey and was completed within the 4-month interval before June 30 (the date of the close of nominations). Authors nominated in the "Best New Author" category must have posted their first fic at Portkey in that same interval.

Nominate fics using the following format:

Category:
Title:
Author:

For the Best New Author category, just leave out the Title line.

Do NOT use this thread to discuss the nominated fics; that can be done in threads you create yourself in this forum. Also, please keep all discussion in those threads civil; no flaming, name-calling, or bashing of others' work is allowed. If behavior of this kind occurs, then any activity relating to the Awards will be postponed until further notice.

Okay, enough with the modly stuff...let's get this show on the road!

Modly Note

Just a reminder: I noticed that a few nominations were made either in an incorrect category or in a category that doesn't exist. Don't worry if you've already nominated; we understand that voting can sometimes be a confusing process (insert joke about hanging chads here), and we will re-categorize nominations that have already been made as necessary. However, it would make us much happier if you would double-check the categories before posting. Thank you.

MOD NOTE

There has apparently been a question over what category Action/Adventure fics fall into. These would fall into the Novel Length (Drama) category. While we understand that on the surface it would appear to be a different area entirely, this is where they fall in. So, any Action/Adventure fics, please nominate them in the Drama section. It'll make everything just a little easier for us. Thanks!

MOD NOTE

*sigh* Please keep nominations IN the nomination thread. Do not start a new one for each nomination.

Now, I'm re-posting Chico's nomination here and deleting the thread. I'm very anal about these sort of things, and I hate clutter. Please, read the rules.

QUOTE

I personally think that Heaven's "Just Kiss Me" (otherwise known as the greatest h/hr pumpkin pie fic in the world), should be nominated for Best Short Fic (fluff). (I hope I did this right, I am always afraid to make a full out of myself *laughs*, then when no one else is laughing along *laughs nervously*) Chico

Thank you.
