Remember that, for a Category to "survive", I need at least 5 submissions in the Sub-Genre (Lesbian, Gay, Transgender, Bisexual); if I don't reach the 5 submissions in the Sub-Genre, I will compact the submissions in the Genre (Coming of Age / Young Adult, Contemporary, Fantasy, Historical, Mystery / Thriller, Paranormal / Horror, Sci-Fic / Futuristic); if I don't reach the 5 submissions neither in this way, the Category will not be eligible for this year Rainbow Awards.
