INFORMATION
Hi guys! Happy first day of spring! Sorry for posting this late. My OCD is kicking in and now I'm kicking myself for not bumping the contest on the 15th. I was away at a convention and there was no Wifi in my hotel room, so AFF took a backseat until last night. I don't like updating on mobile devices, so even though I had my iPad and my phone with me in the convention center which did have free Wifi, I decided to wait until I returned home to post this with my computer.
And wow, while I was away, AFF has gotten so many updates. I haven't remembered so many features being unleashed at once since the website got a completely new interface several years ago. Good on Jason (Nichiren) for always being on top of everything and working so hard on this website for us, even though he doesn't get very much back. I've been on this site for almost seven years now, because he's made this place another home for me and I can't imagine myself ever leaving, TBH. Luckily, writing contests still appear when the story-only filter is on, so writers and readers can still find them while filtering out the roleplays. I rely heavily on the contest showing up on the front page and at the top of the tags for new contestants, so knowing that this won't disappear with the new updates is very reassuring.
Thank you to everyone who has entered so far! I really appreciate the interest and I can't wait to read your wonderful stories at the end of the year! I haven't really touched upon the Best Of prizes, since there wasn't a need to before. But now that there are five entries that feature Baekhyun as a main character, I'll be figuring out exactly how I want to distribute those prizes. If you have any thoughts or input on how you'd like this done, go ahead and throw in your ideas in the comment box below. I'll announce the exact parameters for the Best Of prizes either in the April or May update. But there will, at the very least, be a Best Of - Baekhyun story prize for sure.
If you want to join a mini merch giveaway/writing challenge, I'm giving away a Seventeen fan in my other writing contest Shoes of a Unicorn Writing Contest. The giveaway/challenge will be going on for the months of February and March, so if you'd like, join now before it's too late!
Anyway, please continue to write stories, submit entries, and promote the contest! If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please contact me via the comment box, my wall, or private messages. I respond to all messages within 24 hours. And if you'd like to be a karma donator, please contact me so we can discuss the specifics. I will repay you for your generosity! Good luck to anyone on the quarter system who has final exams right now! Spring break for you is just around the corner!
