Welcome back fellow spooks 👻
We're here to reveal the Round 1 results for the next category, Romance!

Again our judges have worked hard to get these results, so thank you ShayLives and Rather_Be_A_Unicorn

Congratulations to the 12 stories that have succeeded in moving on to Round 2!

Remember, this round was based on first impressions. The criteria for judging were title, cover, blurb, grammar, and the hook presented in the first chapter.

If you didn't make it, don't be too disheartened. Whether you moved on to the next round or not, your judges may have left feedback, so feel free to direct message BlackCatAwards to request it.
