valis2Congratulations to all the winners! *applauds*
On a side note, I told you I wouldn't win, and I was right. And no, this isn't the "sulky" valis coming out, it's the realistic! The winners are all "classics"/tremendously popular/great fics. TLS just does not have that kind of readership at the moment. I haven't really done enough publicity, and it's lingering on a bit too long. Plus there are some unique problems for most average readers of SS/OFC, I think, namely a bit too much on the violence scale, and an OFC who isn't, well, likeable, in some ways. I am still astonished that it was nominated, and really happy that it was involved in the competition at all. w00t for me!

Date: 2005-08-03 05:45 pm (UTC)Exactly. And I'm happy that it happened!
This whole experience just reminds me that I need to put a little more effort in, that's all. I need to get the Giant Revision Project finished (including a Britpicking), and write the rest. Then I'll start on the last wave of "PR". Honestly, I never remember to put updates on the few Yahoo groups I belong to, and I always forget to mention it on appropriate LJ comms...I'm just a mess at blowing my own horn, honestly. But for the sake of the story I think I'm going to try to really get it going, once I've made it the best I can possibly can.
