For those of you who participate in our sister branch Summer Zodiac Awards, note that the Winter Zodiac Awards is run differently. Instead of separating novels into genres, we have a broad Best Book category (Shorty Story and Poetry still have their own categories like before). Only one winner will be selected per category, regardless of genre. This contest is a test of your writing ability and storytelling techniques—the foundational skills in any kind of writing.

Let's charge into the holiday season!
