not really a mod post, but...
i apologize, because this isn't technically within the rules, but...
fic_on_demand began in 2004, and the June Challenge was first issued in 2005. i issued it because it was a challenge i wanted to take on myself, and i thought others might find it fun as well. over the years, it's generated literally thousands of fics spanning dozens and dozens of fandoms. as the former mod/owner here, then, i have to say, it was with immense pleasure that i saw this year one person once again take up that challenge. 30 fics in 30 days is not easy, but haku_kaen did it, with no motivation other than the challenge itself.
awesome.
but it doesn't feel right not to commemorate that effort in grand fic on demand style, so!!
Congratulations, and good work!!!
i think a round of applause would not be out of order! ^_~
edited to fix typo, shoot!
