Are you sick and tired of participating in awards that take far too long to complete? Or awards that end up getting cancelled halfway? Are you looking for an award that actually provides you with feedback on how you can improve, rather than...

Happy One Year Anniversary to the community! I'm not going to rant on about it, since I've already written 4500+ words of gratitude in the Jeweller's Store, but I will say a huge thank you to everyone who has been supporting the community - whether you have judged, participated, or just been a little cheerleader. Thank you so much for your support. I am honestly thrilled that this community is still going strong after a year.
I'll be completely honest: this has been my favourite panel of judges to work with. I know I shouldn't say that, but it's true. Please, everyone, give a massive thank you to the following judges:
agilasigma- Thank you so much for judging for us again! Despite your very busy schedule and the pain that real-life can be, you still were very responsive and always let me know about your progress. And, despite everything, you managed to get everything in on time - so thank you so much! You're a champion, and I'm so grateful to have you on the team.
AstoriaRoses- It was such an honour to have you come back! As a previous runner-up, I knew you had a lot of experience and talent up your sleeve, so thank you for sharing that with us! You even requested to judge 30 books, and that is currently the record, so well done and thank you so much!
GnomeMercy- As always, I'm blown away by the dedication when it comes to both judging and reviewing. Your feedback is so detailed and goes right into the technicalities of the story, and it's so reassuring to see that. Thank you for your commitment, thank you for always supporting me, and thank you for being a fantastic judge!
GryffindorsLoneWolf- Lone Wolf, you are truly a blessing upon this planet. I don't know how you do it - you review, you judge, you get everything done on time, and you're barely getting enough time to do it! You're truly amazing, and thank you so much for being my longest-standing judge.
NDeMeer- Honestly, what would I do without you? You're such an awesome judge. You get everything done well before time, you're always ready to step in when I need help, and even when you're busy, you are willing to lend us some of your time to judge. Thank you so much! Words cannot express how grateful I am to have you as part of the judging panel.
And now, without further ado, let's move onto the shortlist?
