(Huge props to Folc4evernaday for the awesome banner!)

Now that I have your attention, it's that time of year again! We're officially kicking off the 2018 Kerth Awards. 2017 saw 71 eligible fanfics written and posted, and as I hope you all saw, Folc4evernaday posted the list earlier this week. If you missed it, you'll find it here. If you think we missed a story, or put a story in the wrong categories, please let us know ASAP.

This year's KCOM is myself, Deadly Chakram and Folc4evernaday. If you need to contact us for any reason, you can email us at kcom@kerthawards.com, drop us a PM through the boards, or one of us can usually be found in the chat we set up for last year's Kerths, which is still active. Huge thanks also go to Annette for looking after the website!

This year's schedule will be as follows:

Nominations will run from 12.01am Feb 18 to 11.59pm Feb 25

Voting will run from 12.01am Mar 18 to 12.01am Mar 25

Ceremony will be on Apr 14 at a time to be decided.

All times are US Central Time (and I promise this year I'll remember about daylight savings!)

We will be running various games and activities during the Kerth season, including quizzes and some fun fanfic challenges, so please watch out for them.

We will also be looking for presenters for the awards ceremony, so if you'd like to volunteer, please let us know.
