#mirandy fanwork awards

[mirandyevents]

Last Year's Fanwork Awards are officially over!

All works have been bookmarked to the Ao3 collection, and hopefully all available winners have been reblogged on tumblr as well - if your post of a winning work hasn't been reblogged yet, let us know!

We had over two hundred nominated fanfiction in 30 categories with 47 winning works in first place (some having the same amount of votes makes it more than the amount of categories), an additional thirty first-place winners in the art, gif and video categories, and over 70 different winning creatives in the first through third places of all the categories! Congrats, everybody!

All nominated and winning fanfiction can be found in the bookmark section of the Ao3 collection linked below:

You can filter it for winners and nominations, and for the different categories (if you can't find the category you are looking for in the suggested bookmarker's tags, go to 'exclude tag' and exclude the category tags with more works, click filter again and it should suggest you new bookmarker's tags now - be careful to only exclude the category tags like 'AU' and not 'winners' 'nominees' and the first-third places, as that would exclude all fics)

It looks like the fandom's favourite tags are:

The visual works can be found in the web archive of this tumblr under the 'award winner' tag, or on mobile by just searching this blog for 'award winner'.

We hope everyone had fun in this event meant to show appreciation for the fandom's creatives, find new favorites and rediscover old fics, and get some inspiration going! Most events are for creator participants only, we thought it would be great to get everyone involved in nominating and voting for their favourite works. Of course there are other great works as well - the winners just happen to be the favs of the people who voted!

If you want to stay active in the TDWP Femslash fandom, the next event is organized by @sapphicwritingprompts, a valentine's ficathon with different prompts you can sign up for. If you aren't a writer yourself but a reader, check out the new works published for the Mirandy Secret Ice Queen Exchange and maybe show your love by leaving some comments!

And of course, feel free to reblog the winning works on here to keep sharing them around :)

This year (2022), there will be fan-run TDWP fanwork awards to show our appreciation for all the fan creations, from fanfic over art to video and more!

What is a fanwork award?

There are different ways awards can be run, but basically everyone can nominate works in different categories for example for fic and art, and later vote for their favourites!

How will the award be organized?

Works will be nominated over google docs, with the option to send in messages here or on discord if that doesn't work for someone for whatever reason, and the voting will take place on the discord server to prevent tampering by people voting multiple times and to make it easier for mods to oversee.

The works in first, second and third places will be added to an Ao3 winner's collection (if the creators allow it), or reblogged here with a winner's banner depending on where they have been posted.

For more information, join the That's Mirandy 18+ discord server or follow this blog!

Update: nominations have started!

Update: voting has started on the server!

Update: the winners of the first categories have been announced and can be found on tumblr and the Ao3 collection!

Writers, video editors and other creators, if any tumblr posts about the winning works have not yet been reblogged by us, feel free to @ us on the post, or send the links on discord or Ao3!

[mirandyevents]

If you want to show some love to the Devil Wears Prada Fandom and find a new way to support artists and writers for Mirandy and more, join the TDWP fanwork awards!

The awards have categories for fics, artworks, manips, videos, favourite comments and more, everything is welcome.

Nominations are ongoing, so look up your favourite works, go through your bookmarks, subscriptions, reblogs, saved artworks, comments on your works, downloaded fics and open tabs, and nominate everything you love and appreciate!

Yes you can nominate several works by the same author, even in the same category!

Yes you can nominate your own works, you can also nominate on anon so we can't even check!

Yes the same work can be nominated in several categories if it fits!

Quick follow up on the Fanwork Awards and the nomination progress

We're past the half-time point of the nomination month (nominations will close at the end of August). Some of the categories don't have a lot of nominations yet, so i've added a list here in the hopes of encouraging people to nominate more works to them. It'll make the voting more interesting, and the more the merrier!

If you want to show them some love and add some more, here are the ones with the least nominations so far:

- getting together/first meeting

- sexual awakening/coming out

- fantasy AU

- sci-fi AUs

- song fics

- lesser known fics

- best characterisation (Andy + Twins)

- best break up scene

- best love confession

- pretty much all the Art categories too

- gifs, gifsets, and manips

- nice comments and constructive criticism (since comments are such an important driving force for creators' content, i think this category is particularly special. so if you've read a comment that made your day or inspired you and uplifted you, please share!)

Remember there is no limit as to how many nominations you can put per category (although i suggest having a variety of different creators so that there's plenty of chance for as many people as possible to win!) We hope these awards bring us all closer together by sharing our love for the amazing work created by so many talented people 💙
