How to Win Awards
Warning... large graphics included!

Step One Pick your award.  Yep, you read that right.  You decide how many weeks to play. Step Two: Post a story that fits the prompt each week. Remember, the story will only qualify if the community members rate the story as a "7" or better in each of the three categories: plot, character, and grammar. Step Three: At the end of the week, I'll post a poll where you can vote on each story.  For guidelines on voting, see This Post.

Step Four: The first week you fail to post a story or that your story is rated lower than a "7", I'll post any awards that you may have earned. Examples: Mary wants the Melpomene Award. She posts a story each week for 15 weeks. On week 16, she doesn't post a story. By week 17, she'll have her Melpomene Award. Kelly wants a Terpsichore Award.  She posts every week, but on week 19, her story gets rated a "6" in grammar. Her run is over.  By week 18, I'll post a Polyhymnia Award, and she starts over again. Jessie is insane and wants them all.  Oi.  She posts three stories and then skips week 4.  By week five, I post a Calliope Award for her.  She starts over again, and must post at least 6 stories before taking another week off and then I'll post a Clio Award for her. Yep, every time you miss a week, you start over at ONE!

Calliope Award - 3 consecutive weeks Clio Award - 6 consecutive weeks Erato Award - 9 consecutive weeks Euterpe Award - 12 consecutive weeks Melpomene Award - 15 consecutive weeks Polyhymnia Award - 18 consecutive weeks Terpsichore Award - 21 consecutive weeks Thalia Award - 24 consecutive weeks Urania Award - 27 consecutive weeks Goddess Award - 30 consecutive weeks

Online fandom newbie...came online in 2011 and just now found this comm. The previous comment is from 2010, so I am wondering about the activity level on this comm.

This community is still very active

Yays! I'll be watching for my time to start! (After the holidays, 'cause right now I'm all about writing fic for my fandom's Seekrit Santa.) Is it okay for me to use a "taming the muse" icon before I start writing for your comm? They are awesome (and good for comm-pimping...that's how I learned of this comm's existence.)

You're more than welcome to. You should know that I'm the fairy god-mod around here... I actually turned over the community because I didn't have time to run it well.

Ha! "Fairy god-mod"! *admires your rhyme scheme*
