Status: Closed & almost done 🥳
Welcome to the WHO Mini Awards, a safe space for all authors, particularly smaller ones. Everyone gets reviews and prizes, even if you don't win! All genres, including fanfics, are allowed, though please keep in mind...
This is one of the largest (in terms of long-term commitment) categories I have EVER done in all my five years of contest hosting, so this is a major moment for all of us 👏👏 I'd say it's on par with the Best Fanfic category for my Fairy Night Awards, so it's safe to say this is a special category to me!
For an additional prize of 10 votes on any story of your choosing, guess the word count of the reviews (intro + outro not included)! Anyone can participate, whether you're a participant of this category or not! Even those not signed up for the contest can make a guess.
Leave your guesses here --->
Any guess not left as an inline comment there ^^ will not be counted. Please use whole numbers, not ranges. So do not guess 15,000 - 16,000, guess 15k or 16k. No ranges allowed.
Also, just to give a slight hint, none of my reviews for this contest are ever going to be under 10k words long. If they are, I will say so. I also go based off of Quotev, not Wattpad, since I have no intros/outros on Q, just the raw reviews.
Winners will be announced in the next results.
For the Indie category, the total word count of the reviews was 40,609, or 115.6 pages.

You can see in the bottom right corner that the word count is there.
That means the person who got it closest was Iyah-M, who guessed 40k on the dot, with the second closest being jobless_for_Bangtan, who guessed 37k. Awesome guesses! I will be giving ten votes on any story of your choosing, or just a random story if you don't care which one or if you don't see this.
Now, onto the results for this category.
If I make a suggestion you do not want to use, simply ignore it. You don't need to go out of your way to tell me how much you dislike and disagree with the suggestion. That's a slap in the face to all the time I spent making it. I won't be offended if you don't use the suggestion and/or ignore it, but blatantly disrespecting it is rude. I get it; every writer has their own style, and my suggestions won't work for everyone and that's 100% okay, but please just ignore them if you don't want to use them instead of arguing with me about them.
There will be third, second, and first place, along with three honorable mentions (there was a tie, so an additional honorable mention will be given). There are eighteen total participants in this category, so good luck scrolling through this, lol. This was also an extremely, extremely competitive category, so please do not be discouraged no matter what your results are.
I apologize if there are ever any repeats with the songs. As you can imagine, I have a lot of songs to give out, and some songs fit multiple stories, but I hope you enjoy your playlists!
