*UPDATE* 2026 TMNT Fanfic Reader's Choice Awards
>>FAQ<< >>QUICK RULE GUIDE<<
Do you read TMNT fanfic? Do you want to encourage more discussion around fanfic? Do you want to yell from the rooftops how good this one fanfic you read is?
Then do it more--
But also if you would like, you can nominate some fanfics!
The rules are included in the survey. The survey will be open until the 1st of June! Then voting will begin!
For the TMNT Fanfic Reader's Choice Awards 2026. All nominations must: Have updated between January 1, 2022 and present day Must be a fanfic
All nominations will be put into a big chart of fanfics regardless of votes or nominations! Also fanfics will win digital ribbons that can be put on profiles or on AO3 pages. Hooray!
**UPDATE** May 19, 2025
We've heard you on the time restrictions! That will now be updated. Any fanfics between January 1, 2022 and present day now qualify! Also, some categories have changed, or been added!
All nominated fics will still be kept but you are allowed to submit again with older fics if you like. This will be a one-time thing, since it's been such a long time since there's been any sort of fic awards. We plan to do this yearly (hopefully again in February), so this is a chance for fics that aren't yet 5+ years old but are in that sweet spot of 2022-2024 to shine.
Sorry about all the messiness, we're figuring things out as we go! Like I said, next year should be a little more organized now that we're settling everything.
Categories can now be found in the quick rule post, linked above! It also includes some more in-depth rules so you can know ahead of time what counts and what can get you disqualified. Some categories have changed, so be sure to double check!
