Wow. And a big thank you.
I got the most amazing and surprising email. It was a gift certificate from Amazon, and had a note thanking me for every word of my Mag 7 story Cold Enough to Snow. Now, it's always wonderful to know that someone read and enjoyed your story, but that was just really, really sweet and wonderful and so totally unexpected.
And I don't know who it is! They don't send you the email address of the person who sent it, so I can't thank her, and all I can do is post here and say that Wendy, I really appreciate your kind gift, and it made some tough times recently feel a lot more bearable. (And if I do know you in fandom by a different appellation, please let me know! I am often horrible at remembering RL names vs. fannish names.)
I always really loved that story, and it makes me love it even more that it's been able to make so many people happy. (Seriously, they live to be 99 and die in each other's arms. I'm just sayin'.)
