Fourteen?!
I've just counted and I make it fourteen new pieces of writing that have been posted in this fandom in the last five days. Fourteen?! Seven of these are birthday gifts for Lord Hornblower and seven appear to be spontaneous offerings. And we've had everything; bookverse, movieverse, sonnets, drabbles, horoscopes, poetry, dark and light LKUs, fluff, smut, angst, slash, crack, gen and the most beautifully moving first time fic I have ever read. There's even been a sighting of that rarest of rare characters in this fandom, bookverse Kennedy!
I've said it many times before, when I stumbled across Hornblower fandom, while I was in awe of all the amazing fic that had been written, I was also very sad to have missed the boat by several years at least. Looks like I was wrong. It seems I came aboard just in time! So thanks to everyone for all this amazing creativity and special thanks to those that carried on writing through the doldrums.
Sorry, this is a completely cheesy post but what the hell!
