The Huggy Awards ("Huggie Awards" or "Huggies") was fanfiction and art award given out at ZebraCon. Awards were grouped by fandom.

Information on the nominees and winners for some years is sparse and any additional information to fill in the gaps is appreciated!

"Easier Than Writing an LOC"

A fan in 2001 encouraged fans in her fandom to vote:

This is an opportunity for fans to tell their writers that their work is not falling into a black hole. Nominating stories for Huggys tells us *someone* is reading it. It's easier than writing an LOC, and you can nominate through email. You don't have to nominate in every category, just nominate stories that you thought were worthy of being nominated, stories that meant something to you. I know there are a lot of folks on this list who read zines in this fandom, so this is a good opportunity for you to do something to encourage people to produce more zines for the fandom.

A fandom runs on its fiction and the more fiction, the happier the fans. [1]
