Okay, that was a lot. I didn't intend to blow through 3 genres like that, but I got started and I just felt like I had to see it through.

If you don't know me, hi. My name is Alana Sinclair, and I have independently hosted and completed 3 awards. And this is my final award. I would to thank everyone, especially those who have seen through multiple awards with me. I'd like to think that you guys have seen my hosting skills improve over this last year and a half.

I appreciate everyone who has worked with me to make the Borderverse Awards happen, and I will be starting my reads for the judges shortly. After I'm done, I will be reaching out to each judge and each of the top 3 participants to make sure that all prizes have been distributed. However, if you know off the top of your head that I didn't follow through on a prize that I should have a while ago, let me know. After all of that, I'll be done.

I've appreciated getting to reach out to so many people and getting to know so many of you as well. I'll miss getting connected to the community this way, but if you'd like to show some thanks or stay connected, you can read The Gate, my completed novel, hit me up in the DreamlandCommunity , or visit my kingdom on Writer's Kingdom.

I promise I'm more than that annoying account posting awards things 24/7. I write urban fantasy, I love doing r4rs, I intern at a film company in Hollywood, and I love to get to know people. Don't be afraid to reach out! I swear I'm likable (sometimes).

Even though these are my last independent awards, I might be open to something else or something similar in the future. Until then, love ya lots, and see you soon.
