WINNERS: Check your inbox for the PWA 2017 Seal that you can put on the cover of your fic if you wish.

Thank you to all out authors for writing fics and entering the contest. We had another year full of enjoyable fics, and thoroughly enjoyed reading through them all. 

We would also like to thank our judges, Dictator-Chan , d_s_t_e, and Sheare! They were all amazing judges, and they worked on so much for this competition. This account wouldn't be nearly as polished, and this contest wouldn't have been possible, without them.

We've also created a post-PWA survey that will help us improve the awards for next year. The link will be in the comments and on our message board, so please help us by filling it out!

Please look forward to the Special Awards coming later today!
