Lost Fic Awards Categories poll

HI guys, I figured this was a good time to check in and see if the current fic categories are working for everyone before we start on the next round of nominations. If there's an option I haven't covered, please feel free to leave your ideas in comments.

The illustrious former mod, [livejournal.com profile] hkath, ended up streamlining and combining a lot of these categories for a reason: People just weren't nominating enough fics in each of the categories like "Best Kiss" to make them viable each month, but if you would like to see them come back, possibly every few months, that could happen.

And if you are perfectly pleased with the status quo, please speak up!


[Poll #1004512]

Up to a triple drabble seems like a fair cut off. You may have to specify that 300 words would be the limit - because the challenge of any form of drabble is the self-editing down and down and down to the exact word count. That's what makes the single drabble such fun! But yeah, double, double and a half, triple - they're all good far as I'm concerned.

I'm hoping you can keep it up, too. I'm sure the Newsletter takes quite a bit of time (it's such a wonderful device!) and none of us wants you to burn out, either! You aren't shy about asking for help, are you? I know quite a few of us would be willing to lend a hand when needed. :)

Yay for your fertile brain cells, already coming up with a Mod's Choice! I'll be excited to see the changes which come with the next list of nominating categories - and thanks again for taking up the gauntlet!
