2026 Team Update

Hey all!

We've got some changes coming up for 2026.

Our Fab Artist @superherotiger retired last year, after making some amazing prizes for our winners. And I've decided 2025 is my last year too.

I am so, so proud of what the Awards became. I started in Spring 2021 with an idea and the art of @monireh89 to add to the promo posts. She signed up to make the prizes and I got going. I hoped desperately that some of you would get involved, that there would be some nominations to vote on. And you absolutely blew me away! | was quite literally overwhelmed - 12 hour days logging the nominations and calculating votes! - but I was having the time of my life. @superherotiger came in to rescue in the last stretch, saving my sanity in the process.

The Team grew as @asyouleft @iron-mum and @stillctrsara came on board and we've had a wild 4 more cycles. They work insanely hard and streamlined the process massively - so my sanity was no longer as risk, at least no more than it usually is. They dealt with my questions and grumbles and finetuned details - they made it so much easier for me and so much more fun. And I really have loved being a part of the team with them.

But I've got some health issues now and my ability to spend time on a screen is massively reduced, as is my energy levels and spoons capacity. If I did push through and go in for another year, which I did plan on doing, I'd be slowing us down, complicating the process and creating a lot more work for others. And I wouldn't find the same joy I always have because of it.

But the awesome Awards Alumni @asyouleft and @stillctrsara are signed to run the 2026 Cycle together and they're pros. I promise you a great cycle and whole lotta fun.

There will likely be some changes coming up with dates and categories etc, so keep an eye on the posts here.

Thank you all for the fun times and enjoy the future...

THANK YOU FOR 2025!

And we're... Done!

Winners and Runners-Up have been notified where possible and bookmarked.

All stories nominated are listed under the 2025 Bookmark and Finalists are here!

And now some incredibly well-deserved thanks!

@asyouleft - Is A Master! They make the nomination and voting forms, log all the results into a Google Sheet so we can send out the comments and make bookmarks and posts with absolute ease and are there in the Discord on the daily to help make decisions and support the team when roadblocks pop up. They make the Awards possible and if you enjoy them, you owe it to them.

@superherotiger - Oh Boy... They make the most Amazing Art! The icons and banner, the prizes, were all made by them, and they are Beautiful! The 2025 Prizes might be my favourite so far. They are also there in the Discord day after day.

The Irondad Creator Awards 2025 could absolutely not have run without them. They put in hours of work and time to make this as much fun as possible for you all and for us - because we have so much fun year after year.

This year will be our last with @superherotiger, so we're sending them extra thanks and love for the years they've given to the Irondad Creator Awards and wish them all the luck, fun and joy in their future adventures. Thank you hon x

Also a hug to @stillctrsara who had to take a step back from the team a couple years ago but still checks in to our Discord and helps with the decision-making and any issues that pop up.

Take a bow, guys, you've earned it!

Thank you to each and every one of you that got involved in any way - be it an Ask, a nomination, a vote, or reblog. There would be no point running the awards without you guys - and that means there would be no fun for us.

I'll be around if there are any issues or asks that pop up, but officially, we're shutting down for 2025.
