I’d like to add my congratulations for all of the nominees.
The Kerths are part of what makes this fandom special. It’s not just recognition for the authors. I believe the greatest value of the Kerth awards is for readers.
When I first found this fandom, with thousands of stories, I would have had no idea where to start. The Kerth awards answered that question. When I’ve been to other sources of fanfic in other fandoms, it’s always a struggle figuring out what to read.
As for my own nominations, I really don’t know what to say beyond, “Thank you.”
Bob
