Judging

All submitted works will be judged seriously. They will be judged on creativity as well as technical skill.

If you would like to be a judge, PM me and tell me which contest(s) you would like to judge. Please be specefic. Don't just say that you want to judge. Tell me which contest(s) you want to judge and why you want to judge them.

You cannot judge a contest you want to enter! However, you can, say, enter the HM writing contest and still judge the non-HM writing contest.
