Language Awards 23

Promotion list: How to apply?

Another month has passed since the kickoff of the Language Awards, and it's time for a midterm assessment! All writers, readers, and artists participating in the Language Awards can sign up for the promotion list. Registration for the promotion list is not mandatory to participate in the Language Awards, and signing up does not guarantee you a spot on the promotion list. The organizers reserve the right to reject submissions that do not comply with the rules and guidelines of this competition.

Please note that submissions sent after the deadline will not be added. The midterm assessment is merely a snapshot and does not affect the evaluation of the final work. The promotion list can be used by other Wattpadders to discover other writers, readers, and artists. Haven't shared any of your literary or artistic work yet? No worries! You can still do so after this assessment. If you're a reader and come across a story that is not included in the midterm assessment but meets the requirements, it will still count.

The rules for signing up are as follows:

✾ Your literary or artistic work is available online on Wattpad and has not been published prior to September 1, 2023;

✾ Your literary or artistic work was created for the Language Awards 2023 and is featured in a book created specifically for the Language Awards 2023. Stories may be bundled together, as long as this bundle was published online after September 1, 2023. Stories that have been added to a bundle that was published before September 1, 2023, will not be eligible;

✾ Your literary or artistic work includes the #LanguageAwards2023 tag;

✾ Your literary or artistic work complies with Wattpad's content guidelines;

✾ Your literary or artistic work is written in Hindi, Gujarati, Marathi, Telugu, Kannada and Bengali;

✾ Your literary or artistic work incorporates at least two of the prompts within a single culture, as mentioned in the 'Prompts' chapter;

✾ Even as a reader, you can register yourself for the promotion list if you're looking for new stories. Please note that signing up for the promotion list may result in being tagged or contacted by other Wattpadders. If you prefer not to be contacted in this way, do not sign up for the promotion list and choose your reading material when the promotion list is published online.

Do you meet all the requirements? Then you can proceed with the registration:

✾ Registration for the promotion list can be done using this form! Fill out an individual form for each submission. For example, if you have written ten stories in a bundle and want to submit all ten, you must submit a separate form for each of the ten stories;

✾ Register yourself and/or your literary or artistic work between October 1st and October 7th. The deadline for registration is on October 7th at 11:59 PM IST. Unfortunately, registrations received after the deadline will not be considered.
