Question of the day part 8
BSBShania:
Being a new writer, I was like "If one of these two gets nominated, I'm one lucky teen" LOL I knew there was a 99.9% chance they weren't gonna get nominated.
FrickingKaos:
I was really shocked that I got nominsted for anything this year. Especially Finding Carter....but I am really pleased and flattered. I was surprised last year when FYO got nominated as well.
mare:
I think you can only get nominated if people bother to nominate you. If people don't take the time to nominate your stuff, then no matter how good it is, it's going to get overlooked. Yes, I'm still annoyed about the lack of participation this year.
As far as me, like everyone else said, I tend to be more surprised when something I think totally doesn't deserve to be nominated for something does rather than the other way around.
mare:
I guess a good question along those lines, is what do you think about awards in general? Do you think they really mean something or just a popularity contest?
Carter-Orange:
I love the awards! They are a great way to celebrate good stories. Sometimes I'll see a story nominated or which has won, and then go and read that story if I haven't already.
I don't think it should be about nominating friends, it should be all about the writing.
