The Blank Page Awards were annual fanfic awards for the Hanson fandom. The awards are moderated by Bethany of PlaceToHide.net, and are a replacement for her earlier Thieves and Liars Awards which were not incredibly successful. The Blank Page Awards were designed to have lots of categories for genres, characters and stories so that stories that otherwise might not receive nominations for awards would have a chance to shine.

The awards take their name from Hanson's 2011 fan club EP Facing the Blank Page.

Detailed statistics were kept in order to determine if the awards were successful.
