Harry Potter fan fiction and art site FictionAlley
has been nominated for a prestigious "Best Community" Webby Award in the eighth annual event, to be held May 12.
"The members of Team FictionAlley are beyond thrilled by the nomination," said Heidi Tandy, president of FAWC, Inc., the non-profit organization that operates the site. "But we really feel that the nod belongs to all the authors, reviewers and Parkies - they are the community behind FA."
Other sites in the "Best Community" category include Friendster and the ever-popular LiveJournal.
The awards have been called "the online Oscars" by Time magazine, and puts FA in very good company. Google, BBC News and Apple's iTunes are all nominated in other categories.

Cool but personally I don't care about fictionally. I don't really know exactly what it is for but if HPANA is a candidate then GO GO HPANA, GO GO HPANA.
GO LEAFS GO

I really love fan fiction, especially writing it. I'm a horrible writer, so I would never publish it on here or anything like that, but it's nice to have something to read in between books!

Well congrats to the people there. Why isn't HPANA nominated? I hope it is nominated for something. Our class is making websites and it's really hard. Something like HPANA is near impossible for me.

Congrats to them! Except, they turned down my fanfiction, and that annoyed me a lot. And I also think HPANA is better.
