Hello GA Authors! Each year, the site hosts the Reader's Choice Awards. Members can nominate, and then vote on the top nominees, for their favorite authors and stories in numerous categories. It is lovely author recognition from the most important person to an author, their fans! Banner awards are given, which we encourage authors to use for their signatures, forums, About Me profile page additions, etc... Below is a list of the winners from the time the awards began, which we will strive to keep updated.
