Congratulations on your win in Round One!

  ══✦══✦══✦══✦══✦══✦══✦══✦══✦══✦══

This round will be more competitive. There were a lot of amazing stories in the previous round, and now you are all competing for a rank of 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place.

There will also be 2 other prizes. A sticker for Hot Stuff, which is an award based on a book's ability to make the judge's heart race and a banner for Best Aesthetics.

Judging criteria for this round is to remain confidential between myself and the judges. You may not ask for your scores. I can tell you that your story will be scored heavily based on plot, characterization, and quality of writing. I have expanded on the criteria from Round One to include a more in-depth analysis of your work.

Judges are responsible for reading only 4 chapters of your book.

Again, I will mention that if you change your username or story title then you MUST let me know asap. If a judge has a problem finding your profile or your story then you will be disqualified.

Don't forget to follow ALL the judges in your group! They are doing you a tremendous favor by reading your work. They are also taking time out of their schedule to judge your book based on the criteria I have set for them. The least you can do is give them a follow to show your appreciation. I value our judges highly and I'd like for them to be compensated for their time here. I want this event to be beneficial for everyone.

Participants will be required to rate their judges. Just like in Round One there will be a Google Form link in the comments section of this page. Please rate only your judges and base your decision off the feedback they leave on your book.
