1984 Golden Medallion Winners
From RomanceWiki
The Romance Writers of America 1984's Golden Medallion awards saw the introduction of newer, more refined categories, including breaking down the romance genre by length. The year also saw a first in the awards' short history -- the first co-winners in a category. The Traditional category was introduced in 1984, replacing, presumably, the "Sweet" category from the previous year.
