more questions:
I've now been reading the category descriptors and have more questions (think I've been assuming I knew what they were without actually reading
)
1.
Best Alternate Universe / Elseworlds Story: Stories which feature parallel universes (including the Alt World that was introduced on the show), or stories in which the author has made major changes (such as time, place and/or nature of the characters) before where the series started in the Pilot. Cross-overs would also fit in this category. No size restrictions.
Last year, 'Next Generation' was included in this category. What happened?
2. Best Relationship:
Best Relationship Story (over 50k): B-plot driven stories which focus mainly on Lois & Clark's relationship. I was wondering if stories that are both A plot abd B plot driven would count here. As a reader, I find it's those fics which intertwine the two which stay with me and are the most moving because the A plot affects the B plot and so makes it richer somehow. Does that make sense? So by sticking with a B plot driven only fic, I wouldn't be nominating what I really think are the best relationship fics.
(although there are many short fics that are relationship fics that are wonderful, highlighting as they do one special aspect of the relationship)
