New Committee Member!

We are very happy to announce another shipper has come aboard! The Committee now has six members and we're hoping that will make our lives a little bit easier.

IamDKScully has joined the Sam & Jack Multimedia Awards!


After launching the website and promoting the new Awards, Scully (as we like to call her) was one of our first supporters. She immediately offered to help us out if necessary and even gave us permission to use some of her fanworks in our promotional work.

A few weeks in we approached her to inquire if she would be willing to help us out by filling in a questionnaire as a so-called 'random shipper*' and she was more than happy to do so. In spite of some RL trouble like flooding basements, she got back to us ASAP with some lovely answers you will be able to read about soon.

So, when the committee was starting to feel a bit overwhelmed with all the behind-the-scenes work involved in the Awards, we immediately thought of Scully when the subject of asking for assistance came up. As hoped, she said yes and jumped in right away the next day!


IamDKScully

IamDKScully (or just plain Scully) found herself immersed in Stargate fandom two years ago when she discovered the entire series online one night when she was up late desperately seeking a break from real life. Once she'd finished watching the series from start to finish, she still wanted more. Luckily, she found the continued adventures of her favorite foursome in something called “fanfiction.” Inspired by those awesome tales, Scully soon posted a fanwork of her own. She has since published several stand-alone stories and has two multi-chapter WIPs. Her love for the fandom continues to grow through the community over at Gateworld. It was there that she found encouragement as a fanfiction author, began creating digital art and found an awesome group of people to share in her favorite ship as well as her Stargate obsession.

Scully has come on board to assist with some of the administrative tasks and her artwork can soon be found alongside Muse's promoting the awards across the universe. 



* If you are a 'random shipper' and want to volunteer then please get in touch with us.
