After the first message, I realized you were right ~ doing this more than once a year could get a little crazy, so I did actually change the awards page to reflect that. :) For now, I'm thinking of a paper award, to be sent to the actor, writer, etc ~ if possible! I do want to have a genre fan-con next year, so maybe the awards could be combined with that ~ it's definitely something to discuss. Of necessity the whole thing is going to have to start out kind of small, but I'm doing research now into how to run a fan con. I'm gonna need help everyone, so be warned! I'll probably be putting a regular Help Wanted page at the site soon, since I want this to be a great organization. More heads thinking would be a good thing. :)
