To select the ultimate winners for MYAA 2024, we want to gain a deeper understanding of your story. In an era of advanced AI, a live Q&A session allows us to authenticate your story as your own creation.

Connecting with you in person also helps us relate to your narrative on a more personal level.

Final Winners Selection
Winners will be determined based on the quality of your preliminary round story and how authentically and genuinely you handle the Q&A session.

During the Q&A, you may be asked about your story's inspiration, themes, characters, or any personal connections to the story. Be prepared to discuss your ideas openly and honestly. To prepare, consider what inspired your story and think about its themes and characters. This is a relaxed conversation, so feel free to share your thoughts and connect with the judges! Remember, we're not looking for polished responses but rather a genuine, personal understanding of your story. Just be yourself!

We are excited to announce that the 10 winners for each category will be revealed on 15 November 2024. Stay tuned for the announcement!
