The time has finally come for author reveals and the announcement of award winners for Weeping Willow Fest 2021!
Before we get into it, we just want to thank every author and artist that participated, every reader that engaged, and every person that supported this fest. All of your votes have been heard and counted, and below you’ll find a summary of results. Each award category has a winner (or multiple in the case of ties), a runner up (or multiple in case of ties), and a list of honourable mentions for any piece that got the third most amount of votes. Note that the order of listed works is alphabetical - it has no implication on which is preferred in the case of a tie. 
Without further ado...
