YWS Best & Most Awards 2025!
As we head towards the end of 2025 (can you believe that?), it's the perfect moment to pause and reflect on the creativity that makes YWS what it is. Over the past year, our community has continued to thrive thanks to the passion and many talents of its members from novelists to short story writers, poets, roleplayers, and everyone else beyond. This is our chance to recognize the people who make it so special.
The yearly Best & Most Awards is all about highlighting the people and works that stood out to you!
To participate, simply post your votes below! Each category should include only one user or link; however, you may nominate the same person for multiple categories if you feel that is deserving. If you're unsure about any of them, that is completely fine - you are free to leave them blank!
@Roxanne and I will tally the votes after the 1st and the thread will be locked.
