(source: starwarsfanworks.com, 01-01-07)

Ladies and gentlemen, start your voting!

As in previous years, Star Wars Fanworks is holding its annual Star Wars Fan Audio Awards to recognize outstanding work in the genre in the most recent broadcast year. This year, of course, voting is being carried out to acknowledge projects released during 2006.

Categories have been slightly narrowed down since last year's awards, but voting is being carried out in a similar fashion. Those wishing to participate can do so in two ways, but must meet one of two qualifications.

Qualifications: As previously determined during discussions with the community and the approval thereof, anyone voting in the 2007 awards must either be (a) a registered member of GalacticSenate.com since no later than December 1, 2006, or (b) a member of the Star Wars fan audio creative community (someone who has been an active participant in the genre, either by being a creator, host, mixer, voice actor, or other "creative talent").

Voting Methods: Those wishing to vote should head to the Star Wars Fanworks message board over at GalacticSenate.com (using the link on the top right column of the Fanworks main page). There, you will find a thread at the top of the board that includes a few notes on rules/procedures and complete lists of all of the eligible nominees for each award category. Voters can then place their votes by either (a) sending a Private Message to forum member "Nathan Butler" (the starter of the voting thread) or (b) sending an email to "nathan@starwarsfanworks.com" so that Fanworks can tally your votes.

Winners will be announced in a special episode of Star Wars and Beyond a few weeks after voting ends on January 14.

So, what are you waiting for? Go show your support for the genre and your favorites in the 2007 Star Wars Fanworks Fan Audio Awards.
