TS Meta: Light My Fire Awards

[arrow00]

well, holy sheet. Christmas has been very, very good to me.

my short story, Fucking With Sandburg, has just won a Light My Fire Award in the Day In The Life category (Loft Stories Award).

My story Complicated won for the Clue Bus (First Time) category.

And apparently I've been voted first place in the LMFA category: Slash—New Author.

::gonk::

Thanks, my Sen-fan friends. I've been using the LFMAs from previous years to find great TS stories to read. It's kinda overwhelming to think people will be finding me there amongst the writers I admire.

Well deserved, all of it. Congratulations. :-)

[arrow00.livejournal.com]

Thank you. I'm not kidding when I say I really wasn't expecting it. So many great writers, and the stories mine were up against are some of my favorites.

Also, I tend to think of myself as under the radar, but I guess: not so much.

Thank you so much for your support over the past year, Mab!

eta: and congrats to you as well, for Hell of a Town and Children of Cascade!

Well, of course, the reason you're being showered with awesomeness is 'cause it's magnetic; it attracts to awesome. Congratulations!
So glad you posted your list of 2008 fic, too. I'm so horribly behind in my reading, I really need that grab-and-go list of links if I'm ever going to stand a chance of catching up.
Festive felicitations, and a heap of general purpose hugs with no expiry date!

[arrow00.livejournal.com]

you! hello, my sweet. thank you kindly, and happiest of new years in 2009.

[true-brit.livejournal.com]

Yah, I'm a little off the map this past year, but guess what my NY's resolution will be :D
No, for real!

[arrow00.livejournal.com]

call me up when you get a chance, my sweet.

[racric.livejournal.com]

Add my congrats and also thanks for the list. I read "Understood" today and understood completely. Have been thinking about you this time of year for that reason. You did a great job with it, beautiful, brave, emotional, honest, and totally in character.

Sending more hugs to add to Nik's.

[joandarck.livejournal.com]

It was okay -- I'm not feelng well (lack of sun, lack of exercise, lack of sleep) but I'll be fine after new years.

[arrow00.livejournal.com]

I think the cure is scrambled eggs and a walk in the park. Sometime soon?

[sallymn.livejournal.com]

Many congratulations and well deserved :;hugs::

[arrow00.livejournal.com]

and congrats to you, as well! hope your holidays were festive fun. did the kids get amazing prezzies?

[janedavitt.livejournal.com]

Hi Arrow! They did; so much loot and I'm glad to say a lot of it was books which makes me smile.

Eleanor had an iPod and Lauren every single Rainbow Fairy book in existence, I think :-)

[arrow00.livejournal.com]

\o/ xmas fu! books!

I got an extremely interesting coffeemaker from my brother. It looks (and behaves) like an ultra-cool science experiment.

[janedavitt.livejournal.com]

Sounds fun! David has an espresso machine that scares me :-)

[spuffyduds.livejournal.com]

Well, given that I enjoy the hell out of your stuff without having even seen an episode yet, I say you deserve it. :-)

[arrow00.livejournal.com]

thanks, my spuff. you should watch sometime. the boys are fun fun fun.

[fluterbev.livejournal.com]

Huge congratulations! Very well deserved :-)

[arrow00.livejournal.com]

[callistosh65.livejournal.com]

Totally and utterly deserved, my friend. Was so chuffed to see your name up there. Congrats and hugs:)))))

[arrow00.livejournal.com]

Aw, thank you, sweetheart. And happy 2009 to you!

[laurie-ky.livejournal.com]

So you thought you were buzzing along under the radar? NOT! Everybody who reads Sentinel Thursday sat up and took notice when you posted there for the first time. You are a great writer and YAY for your awards. I also read your Due South stories and find them achingly beautiful. (I've yet to see the show).

[arrow00.livejournal.com]

aw, so sweet. Thanks, lovely girl. it's been wonderful seeing your shiny face this past year.

[pattrose.livejournal.com]

Congratulations on your big win. Wow. No wonder you were excited. Good luck with the New Year. Hopefully we'll see more Sentinel stories from you. I love them so.
Hugs, Patt
