The shortlist for the Erotic Awards came out today. Cliterati isn't on it. The web shortlist is the Erotica Readers and Writers Association, Lavalush and Sally's Site.
Not happy - really thought we were in with a good chance. After all, we are one of the only sex sites out there targeting women and going from nothing to getting half a million pages in a year (and only spending £300) is a pretty big achievement. Was really hoping we'd get through - would have made all the nights staying up till 4am over the last year worth it. And it's one of the only awards that we can enter the site for; most website awards don't allow adult sites to enter.
On the plus side, we still get loads of letters through from people saying that we've improved their sex life which I guess is more important. And the traffic is growing every month.
Still sad though. I wanted that award. But congratulations to everyone who did get through.
