Helloo Everyone 🤗

Finally the moment, everyone has been waiting for, has arrived! Aaah! I'm excited 😳

Firstly, I really want to appologise for the delay. Thank you all for being so cooperative! 😊

It's been an utter pleasure reading all those outstanding stories ⭐️ that were posted. I am so glad everyone liked my idea for this contest! We recieved a total of 32 entries. Jot, Ravjot & I were really impressed with all the stories. They were all so beautifully written, but ofcourse there has to be a winner 😃 so fingers crossed everyone :)

Before we go on to the names of the winners, here is something the judges want to say :

Jot : All the stories were very well written and encompassed the "love" theme in a very well manner. I found majority of them touching and extremely interesting to read. I don't remember getting bored or tired of reading any one of them. Great everyone.

Ravjot : I think everyone did a fabulous job and I had a lot of fun reading every story. I think its great to get to read such beautiful work, I have always loved reading love stories and none of your stories were boring! Enjoyed reading every single one of them! Keep it up :)

Manjari : It was truly an outstanding effort by all writers. Its usually very difficult to write on two different actors and you really have to push your imagination to a whole new level, but it was great to see so many people participating in this competition and doing so well. Its been great reading all those beautiful pieces. Thank you so much for taking part and I really hope both writers and readers have had a great time.

Now, let me explain how we marked all the stories, (To prevent doubts)

The participants were marked on 50 by each of the judges, i.e., total of 150. Marks were given for Title, Language Usage, Romance , Characterization & Idea (10 points each). After that according to the likes, extra points (Out of 20) were given, to improve your scores. The number of likes has indeed affected your rankings because if your scores were really close to someone elses, then the no. of like did push you up the rank order.

After all this, the final scores were tallied and we got our 5 best stories. This way of scoring was used so that the competition would be fair to everyone.

So, Let's Begin !


Love Story 2012 : 5th Place


It goes to a person who wrote on Karan Singh Grover & Nia Sharma. Her idea was neat, simple and loved by all the judges. Her story had innocence and love.

Oh. My. God!

This is unbelievable! I never expected to win, I only wrote cause of the awesome pairing that was given and cause Manjari encouraged me to!

Damn! I'm still dazed! This is the first time my writing has ever been recognised, and it means a LOT to me! *pinches self*

Okay, so I need to thank a lot of people here! Firstly Manjari, for encouraging me to take part in this! And of course, the organisers, for such a wonderful pairing! Nothing would have happened if KSG wasn't paired opposite Nia Sharma!

Then of course, the judges! Thank you so much for this, it means a lot!

I'd like to thank all those who read and commented, especially my friends! Nams, Nicks, Jen, Tanu, Angie, Soumya, Nisha, Pooja, Aanchal, Nish, Asha and anyone else I'm missing out on! Thank you so much for taking the time out to read this and comment, cause it means a lot to me!

Another thank you for all of you who read and appreciated the fic, whether or not you expressed it!

A last shoutout to Cinevistaas. The geniuses who created the evergreen characters of Armaan Mallik and Maanvi Chaudhary-Vadhera. For giving me two of my favorite shows, DMG and EHMMBH.

Lots and lots of love, prayers and respect,

Ritchelle

Yes, I agree with Ritchelle: OH. MY. GOD.

Guys! Can I just say, I spent the last couple of days completely stressed about applying to Universities and coursework, when today I signed in and being inactive for the last few days and I see this PM from Manjari. You don't know the smile I had when I saw that I had awarded for my story! I just can't believe it. I am utterly shocked. Manjari, Jot and Ravjot can I just THANK YOU!?

I've never been awarded for my works before and to have such a privilege is just amazing. Thank you so much, not just for the award but for inspiring me (and others) to write and write something that was out of our comfort zone.

I'm so glad that you've liked my story, it really pushes me to carry on writing, to carry on pushing my boundaries. I will wear my siggies with pride (and by the way, these siggies are absolutely beautiful! ❤️)

Thank you to everyone who have read "Sound of music" especially those in the EHMMBH forum. I'm not really good with goodbyes so...

bye, and God bless!

Zahara.
