<p>I found out my results today:
1 gold key for personal memoir and 1 honorable mention for painting. </p>
<p>Congrats! What region are you?</p>
<p>Just got an email 5 minutes ago that I would be able to check online for results. Did you get anything?</p>
<p>man I’m just not getting any of these emails</p>
<p>@Nnormal, my region is Harris County, Texas </p>
<p>They send the emails at different times (depends on your county’s faculty)</p>
<p>Darn it. Honorable mention in poetry. Boo. I should stick just to engineering.</p>
<p>5:07 and no email. I’m worried my submission didn’t go through. </p>
<p>@porcupinecup haha same yo. i was kinda bummed about that, but i did get a silver for a nonfiction piece.</p>
<p>I won two silver keys! One for my poems, and the other for my writing portfolio. I’m slightly bummed that I didn’t win a gold key because this was my only chance at entering into the competition, but Wow! Not one, but two silver keys!</p>
<p>For those who have not received any emails, I would email your county’s director and ask them about it. Good Luck! ;)</p>
<p>^Do we get to go to the awards ceremony? Just with silver keys?</p>
<p>Nope.</p>
<p>Of the five artworks I submitted, I got one gold key, two silver keys, and two honorable mentions! Weird cuz I thought my honorable mention pieces were the best</p>
<p>Won an honorable mention for a short story, not sure if that’s good or not…</p>
<p>@ PorcupineCup and Nnormal</p>
<p>For my area, Silver keys and honorable mentions both go to the award ceremony. It depends on your region; check out your region’s website (they typically post details about the ceremony)</p>
<p>Sadly my area doesn’t have a regional awards ceremony for writing (they have one for art in this fancy building set specifically for young artists) so that’s the end of the line for me. My region comprised of Florida, Alabama, West Virginia, Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky, Mississippi, Arkansas, Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina. So I was pitted against a LOT of kids. Ugh… If only my county was able to sponsor a writing program as well as their art program. :(</p>
<p>I won a Gold Key and two Honorable Mentions for poetry in the southeast WRAL. This is my first time entering so I’m really unsure of what comes next, although I’m really excited that out of my four entries, I won for three. I heard for the southeast art awards, they had a ceremony, does writing as have one as well? Does it depend on the county/district? I’m confused :/</p>
<p>@pursuinglondon I’m in the same area as you, and they say they don’t have one for art. Nor do the silver key and honorable mentions win anything else.</p>
<p>@mirakayla Gotcha, I just saw the information on the website. That really sucks. Do we get certificates or anything for our awards? Sorry, I feel like I’m asking really dumb questions :(</p>
<p>Five gold keys for Short Story (x2), Poetry (x2), and Science Fiction/Fantasy. Also, I got a gold key for my writing portfolio!!! Hope to see some of you guys at Carnegie :)</p>
