Thanks, Queenie, for writing a fabulous advertisement!
It’s volunteer time, FoLCs!!
Please comment, email, or message us and let us know what you are willing to help with!
We have lots of categories, so we need lots of presenters! Are you willing to do one or two presentation speeches? Take on all the size-related categories? The comedy and and the WaFFY one? Let us know—and give us a few options to choose from of what you’d like to try, and we’ll do our best to assign everyone accordingly.
Don’t know what we mean by presentation speech? Haven’t been to a Kerth Ceremony in a while or it’s your first one? Presenters write a speech (funny, sweet, serious—your choice!), and when it’s your turn to present, you’ll copy and paste your speech in a few lines at a time as though you were actually presenting in person. Then, after you’ve listed the nominees for the category, one of the K-Comm (probably Michael) will PM you the winner for you to announce to everyone! To get an idea what one looks like, I’ve pasted below Doranwen’s speech for Best Super Short Story from the 2007 Kerth Awards Ceremony.
Not sure you can attend the ceremony? Or maybe not all of it? That’s okay! While it’s ideal that you’re there, you can still write a speech and ask someone who *can* attend to paste for you!
As you can see from the advertisement, presenting is not all that we need help with! There are a few different ways to help contribute! Has someone else already commented what you wanted to work on? No worries! With a few exceptions, we can divvy up work to spread the love around.
Please respond as soon as you can to let us know how you can help!
In the meantime, don’t forget to keep reading so that you’re ready to cast your vote!
Have a question? Ask it here! Or you can PM any of the K-Com members or reach out on Discord too! You can also send an email to us here: Kcom@kerthawards.com
