Contest Results

We are super excited to announce the results in the Fanfic my Fanfic contest. We were both thrilled by the quality of the fics submitted, and the inventive ways the authors paid homage to some of our the fandom's favourite fics. Reading these entries reminded us why we’re proud to be part of the Twilight fanfiction community!



First of all, we have a litany of people to thank for all of their hard work, support, pimping, editing and bannering!



The Judges: this contest might have more judges than any other contest in fanfiction history! Our judges did awesome work in not only scoring each fic in their category using a crazy spreadsheet, but also they were integral in helping us pimp.

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR PEOPLE READING & VOTING

WHEN READING THESE ENTRIES...

Please remember that this is a light hearted experiment where we asked authors to play around in these story worlds that we love so much. These FMF authors aren't trying to replicate the original author's voice or improve upon it in any way, they are just having fun revisiting these characters.

Of course comparisons to the original will be made, so anyone brave enough to put themselves out there despite that fact, deserves our respect. You are more than welcome to like or not like the entries you read, but as you can tell by the lack of entries we received for several of the fics, very few people had the balls to even try.

And with that, ENJOY these entries for Fanfic My Fanfic. And then vote in the poll.
