Highclere Awards
The Highclere Awards have announced the nominations for the fifth and final round of Downton Abbey fic awards. This time nominations were open to any DA fic published since the start of the show rather than fics written this year. There were over 1500 nominated authors and fics across the categories, including a number of friends--big congrats to gilpin25, ju_dou, silvestria, and vladnyrki (and I hope I haven't forgotten anyone--the list of nominations was massive and I might have missed some of my LJ friends)--and I was especially tickled to see Mary/Richard fics dominate the minor pairings categories as well as hold their own in the regular ones, too. I'm over the moon (and the June ;)) to be up for the following awards:
