Six Sentence Saturday - Soulmate Edition

Whenever Betty eats Pop’s burgers, she thinks of him. Or her. Whomever her soulmate happens to be. “He” is just how Alice refers to Betty’s “taste bud,” so it’s kind of her mental default setting. The greasy food inspires joy in him. Betty can taste it. Only when he’s truly ecstatic, of course. And her soulmate seems to be excited, almost desperately eager when it comes to food. ~~~

Voting begins soon! Thank you so much for the nomination for Oneshot Angst or Hurt/Comfort 💕

[shirly-gallagher]

Finding out that I've been nominated for the @bugheadfanfictionawards is amazing, truly. Honestly, I've been scarce here and within the fandom as of late... with the pandemic and all the residual earthly chaos going on I've been uninspired, depressed, and unsettled. Seeing that people still love my stories, however, all these years later, is really lovely. Thank you to everyone who nominated me. Thank you to all the readers. Thank you to the plethora of other creators out there. And thank you to the hard-working individuals that put this event together and countless others like it! 💛

Story Nomination: It's Like Thunder, Lightning, The Way You Love Me Is... Series Nomination: What's Past Is Prologue

RULES

To promote variety in nominations, a fic & author may only be nominated for a maximum of 2 categories each. If either is nominated for more than 2 categories, the final categories will be decided based on how many votes each category received, and only the top 2 will be selected.

Likewise, each nominated fic or author may only win 1 award each during the voting round.  Whichever category receives the most votes will win the award—subsequent category wins will go to the runner-up.

All fics must have an initial publish date between January 1, 2021 and December 31, 2021.

If a fic has been nominated, or won, in any previous Bughead Fanfiction Awards, it will not be eligible for nomination this round.

Nominations through our inboxes or replying to this post will not count. Please use the Google Form only.

Each fic/content creator only needs to be nominated once to continue onto the voting round.

If you bribe your readers for votes in exchange for “prizes,” eg. faster updates, you will be disqualified. Still cannot believe I have to put this on here.

To help with preparing your nominations, a printable doc version can be found HERE, and a pdf version can be created going to file->download->PDF document in said doc! If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to send us an ask or reach out to @bettycooper. Thank you for helping celebrate our talented & dedicated community!

veronica and reggie will face any minor obstacle and be like “the world is stacked against us. we have no choice but to return to a life of sexy and glamorous crime.”

[gimmickbird-deactivated20231221]

wait one month to submit a business plan? NO WAY

[orangepanic]

Go read an old fic.

There's such recency bias in fandom. As an author you post something, get a few reactions, and then it goes off into the bin. As a reader you check the tags, see what's new, and move on. But a lot of old stuff is really good. It's just sitting there, gathering dust, waiting for someone to take a peek.

So go on. Treat yourself.

Read an old fic.
