You should all know by now that we here at Fic Fare adore the girls over at The Fictionators. Â A couple weeks ago, I got an email asking if I could write something up to go with a nomination they received for The Bloggy Awards – Most Influential Blog. Â I absolutely said yes! Â
Who are The Fictionators you ask?Â
The Fictionators started out in 2009 as a way to highlight and promote our favorite Twilight Fanfiction stories. A couple of years ago, we decided to expand our review set and include books in addition to Twific. We’ve maintained our roots, but we also felt the need to spread our love for all things book related. We’re always honest in our reviews, even if that means we’re not the most popular girls. We’re all about helping our readers connect to the story and find characters that they can fall in love with, which is why we like to keep things conversational and fun.
Here’s what I had to say about them! Â
For years now, The Fictionators has been my ‘go to’ blog for excellent recommendations whether it be for original fiction or fan fiction, the staff at The Fictionators knows their stuff. They always know what the next big story will be. They engage readers with discussion topics, podcasts, giveaways and more! Readers know that when The Fictionators features something it’s worth your time to check it out. The reviewers that are featured on The Fictionators offer their opinion with eloquence and tact, and can be trusted to look at things objectively. I, and many other readers count on this when looking for the next big story to read. I know that when something is featured by this amazing blog, that I better go get my copy right away or I’ll miss out on an amazing story!
But don’t take just my word for it!! Check out what New Adult and Erotic Romance Author Jeanette Grey said:
When The Fictionators began, it was a blog dedicated to Twilight fan fiction. It was one of a handful of absolute must-visit sites on the subject, and one of the loci of a huge, vibrant, vocal community. Since that time, the Twilight fan fiction community has drifted in a lot of different directions, but The Fictionators has only become more influential. While most other fan sites disbanded or faded into the background, The Fictionators responded to the challenge of the community’s wandering attention by broadening its focus to include a wide variety of original fiction. Today, the site is as large, trusted and respected as ever. By being responsive to the needs of its readers—I would go so far as to say by anticipating the needs of its readers—it has become a taste-maker among a huge number of smart, opinionated, increasingly well-read ladies, with an appeal and a circle of influence that I think will only continue to grow.
These are the reasons we think you should vote for The Fictionators over at The Bloggy Awards. Â
