Scribe Award belonging to Paul Cornell

The Scribe Awards, established in 2007 by The International Association of Media Tie-In Writers (IAMTW), [1] "acknowledge and celebrate excellence in licensed tie-in works based on TV shows, movies, and games (video games, computer games, rpgs)". [2] Where most literary awards are based on the calendar year, the Scribe Awards, since 2020, have an eligibility period based of March to February the following year. [3]

Contents

Awards are given in the following categories:

There is also a Grandmaster position, awarded annually to a writer who has contributed to tie-in writing. This is sometimes referred to as the Faust Award. [4]

The awards are juried, with the juries being made up of other members of the IAMTW. A different jury is in place for each category. The juries are not published.[ citation needed ]
