Every participant gets treats in the mail, and a party (when we&#8217;re not having a worldwide pandemic) and perhaps the feeling of achievement of doing a thing. Thank you for joining us and we hope to see you in 2021! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In lieu of not having a whole lot of preparation for this prestigious festival, the judges are the creator of Gothtober, Julianna Parr, (that&#8217;s me) and her trusty science officer, Cristin Pescosolido, both of whom have pieces in Gothtober and are disqualified from consideration. We expect to have a larger panel of judges next year, so get ready! <br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thus, Gothtober is proud to present the VERY FIRST Gothtober Awards, featuring the coveted Citrouille d&#8217;Or!!!!
