I know, I know all of you are groaning at having to read these. I will be quick, pinky promise!

1.) in The Blooming Awards we WILL NOT be taking off for grammar or spelling. The only reason we will is if you write "u" instead of the word "you". Or if you use a comma after each word like "I,ate,cake,today". Silly mistakes like these should already be fixed though!

2.) You MAY nominate other authors. If for some reason they message me or comment "No, I don't want to enter" then I will have to ignore the nomination sadly.

3.) There will be 3 WINNERS for each genre. So everyone has a chance with all the potential winners

4.) NO VOTING. I personally don't believe its fair since someone may have more friends than another. Instead your book will be judged by handpicked judges.

5.) I SUGEST for each of you to put this book in your library so you can be notified with updates.

6.) Book MUST be published. I can't read it otherwise guys!

7.) you have to have AT LEAST one chapter/part published

8.) Only ENGLISH entries. I would love to speak other languages but I don't.

9.) you may NOT enter the same book twice.

10.) enter as much as you want!

11.) BE KIND! No hate will be tolerated.

12.) after filling out the form I will reply letting you know you are accepted. I usually will respond the same day or the day after. If I don't do it after that time period message me!

THANK YOU!
