# JUDGING PROCESS

~ The judges have been teamed up in pairs and both the judges will be reading the same set of stories and mark them accordingly.

~ The final marks of a particular entry will be calculated after taking the average of the marks from both the judges.

~ For maintaining the transparency, all the judges have been allotted a pseudo name which they'll be using during the entire contest.

~ Any conversation between the judges or the judges and the contestants is strictly not allowed until the completion of the judging process. Any conversation they can have is only with the host.

~ The judges will be submitting their evaluation in two documents. In one document, you'll be giving us the marks of all the stories allotted to you and in other document, you will have to compile the reviews of the stories.

~ Once, you're done with the judging, you can submit both the documents to us via email.

4.Defying the Convention by VELLIGal

And in addition to this, we have the stories written by our three Achievers from the SET 1:

~ Mad Hattie's Adventure With The Beast by Nita_Reid

~ Concealed Emotions by polymath_land (Book: Sense me)

Though, these stories will not be considered for evaluation, we would be highly grateful if the judges could take out some time to read these stories and give their reviews in the story itself, but of course, after the judging process is completed. You only need to give feedback for them, marks are not necessary.

That's all we have for now.

Fingers crossed 🤞🤞

See you all soon with the reviews and the results.

Happy Wordsmithing!

Love,
Stella & Asmi
