I just found out that the Wicked Awards have announced the winners for Round 1.
*squee*
I won! I won!
This is extremely cool. I've never actually won anything like this before.
Double Take won top prize in the NC-17/PWP category.

"Cordelia and Angelus as a couple in Sunnydale? A pairing that absolutely needs to be read and spread... These two characters clash and complement each other in a way that makes this ensemble story shine. And, what a surprising turn of events at the end!"
Double or Nothing was selected as a Runner Up in the Showtime/Best Original Plot category.

"This is potentially the best Whedonverse threesome we had the pleasure to read in ages. Not only were all the Scoobies well characterized but they were involved in a fantastically plotted storyline that kept you on the edge. This is a novel size fiction that links seamlessly the BtVS and Ats world around the exciting, jealous, tense, passionate, and loving relationship created by Angelus and Cordelia with Angel."

Congrats, let's break out the champagne! The only surprise is that you haven't won something like this before. Now I'm curious to read what beat out Double or Nothing, because it has to be incredible to have done that!

My fic writing career started long after the heyday of BtVS/AtS, so most of the organized awards were before my time. Plus, I don't post my stuff in places that the general Whedonverse fans come across it. Cali keeps an archive of my fics at Go Team, but that's about it outside of AO & ST. So unless they're looking for C/A fics, chances are they won't find mine.
There are also awards where you nominate your own fics. That just seems wrong to me.
The fic winner in the Best Original Plot category was a Spike/Xander fic, so I'm not familiar with it or the author. I have to say I was amazed by the variety of fics and categories. I don't know how they managed to judge so many different styles and 'ships.

Spike/Xander? There are no words to properly express the ick factor. Don't think I'll be reading that after all, even though I'm sure the author did a great job.
