However, on the topic of SGA...

[sholio]

I had actually completely missed that I'd won "overall best" in the SGA fan awards until several people pointed it out in the comments of my last SGA post. I am such a dork. XD

... but, seriously, that just boggles me, in a stunned and blushing and really amazed kind of way. There are so many brilliant authors in this fandom that I would never have expected anything like this. Thank you, thank you, to all the voters and readers, everyone who nominated me and voted for me. (I'd also like to thank the Academy and my mother. XD) I've had a really wonderful time in this fandom so far, and, my last post notwithstanding, I don't expect to be wooed away from the Atlantis bunch anytime in the foreseeable future. (Though I may have a side dalliance here and there.)

Congratulatons!

Thank you! :)

Truly Shipper I think you are about if not the Mount Everest of SGA fanfiction. You are the author to aspire toward. I mean, for me, you are like the kind of writer I want to become. Another SGA author and myself were discussing this very issue the other day and the conclusion is that you elevate SGA fanfics to another level. So kudos to you! I raise my chocolate truffle shot glass at you!

*blush* Thank you so much -- I really don't know what to say! That's a really incredible compliment.

Well-deserved! And I'm rather happy to hear that you don't plan to be wooed away anytime soon. (Fannish drift, as inevitable as entropy...)

[friendshipper.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much! Yes, I've been very subject to fannish drift in the past ... I'm not sure why I seem to have drifted into SGA fandom and lodged here, but I'm enjoying it. :D

Congrats - you thoroughly deserve it!

Pleased to hear you're not planning on leaving the SGA fandom - just being diverted for a while!

Which for some reason reminds me of a song that Robert Picardo sang to his ST: Voyager fans...something along the lines of 'please stay true to me even though I cheat on you with Stargate'! Wish I could remember the exact words...!!

[friendshipper.livejournal.com]

Hee! That makes me grin! No, not leaving, I don't think. In fact, I'm back to being wooed by SGA as well as LoM story ideas.

[leesa_perrie]

I found it on YouTube here - it's about 2 mins into the song (so near the end) and the exact lines are:

"Please be my loyal star date
Although I cheat on you with stargate."

I'm hoping he might do some Stargate filk songs one day...'cos he's really good!!

You totally deserve it! ;)

Thank you very much!

You mean you didn't know? Really? :D

You really are amazing, however. You are, perhaps, the best SGA writer that I can think of...besides Tipper, Sablecain, Flah07...:)

What I mean to say is...you are one of a kind. Unique. And that's something that everybody appreciates! Congragulations on winning, and I hope that in the future you'll win everything again, and more.

*blush* Thank you so much! No, I hadn't noticed that one -- I didn't even think to click on that link!

Your fics have been a bit of a hot topic over at the ADB forum, even before the wnners were announced -- partially because of Leesa Perrie, but others bring up your work from time to time. :) And of course there's bneen a fair amount of mentions of you there of late, and on Twitter -- so when I said I knew you, one of the gals, welshgirl, asked me to tell you that she loves your stuff. :D Of course, she probably meant for me to tell you in person, but that'd be a bit tricky for us these days, sou desu ne? XP Anyway, it's so cool to be able to say I knew you when! ^^ (Well, okay, better than the people who *just* know you from your fics, anyway. At least I can say we've met in person, and worked together a bit, known each other for a few years now, etc. :D)

[friendshipper.livejournal.com]

Awwww! *blush* Thank you! And tell her thanks for me. :)

Yes, it's been awhile. Are you still in the Midwest? I've been wanting to get down to a con again ... right now I'm thinking about the West Coast cons (less travel time from Alaska) but I'm really starting to miss the convention circuit and all of the creators and Tarts that I used to hook up with.

Nay, I'm stuck in Florida -- have been for four years. I miss Chicago terribly -- lthough, thanks to Stargate, I'm starting to consider Seattle, if I ever have money again. I'm pretty much stranded and broke, at the mo. At least I get to go to Dragon*Con this summer ...
