Putting aside my apologies for the delay, I'd like to note that the first
Fakku Valentines Contest has come to an end, and so I shall announce announce the winners.
The Winner: Yanker
Congratulations,
Yanker, your entry,
The Woodcutter and the Fox, was the best I've read among the entries submitted. Admittedly, there was a bit of a gap among the other works and yours, but despite so, I really enjoyed the content of your work and hope to see more from you. As the winner, you have won yourself two digital copies of Fakku books.
Runner-up: d(^_^)(^_^)d
Congratulations,
d(^_^)(^_^)d, for being the runner-up of the contest for submitting your piece,
The Other Side of the Sunset. I liked that your entry was exploring an aftermath of a tragedy, and how the characters struggled through it. As the winner, you have also won yourself a digital copy of a Fakku Book.
For the rewards, please send a private message to
tsujoi.
Poll winner: leonard267
Congratulations,
leonard267, on winning the
poll with your entry,
New Brave World. As the poll winner, you win a month of Fakku's subscription services.
Honorable mention: Ezlare
Congratulations, Ezlare, for submitting your piece,
The Immortal Royalty, that has earned the honorable mention! You've come far throughout these years, undoubtedly with many struggles and phases of depression, but I think you deserve this one. It wasn't the best, but it was very much a good read. Keep it up.
With some evidences collected, it has been decided that the future Fakku Valentines contests will not have any polls hosted due to suspected poll rigging.
Lastly, I'd like to thank everyone else who took the time to write and submit their entries, as well as those that read and commented on others' works. It was amazing to have over four people enter the contest; I truly am thankful that Fakku has graciously chose to help provide the prizes to liven up the community.
Hopefully, Fakku Summer Contest will take place in around June, or maybe July... August if I'm truly lazy. Until then, perhaps the
Writer's Lounge may serve to be a nice place to drop by for a chat or two with fellow writers, or you could come by my
discord server where we accept fellow writers.
With all that said and done, I hope to see you all next time.
Psst, check out my
non-entry if you can!
