Doing it wrong
Mostly not here any more as you may or may not have noticed (so many many things to be doing, with, irritatingly, some room for fic-thinking-up, but never for fic-writing-down) but I got notice of being nominated for a thingy in dr_river_awards and so I did the things that had to be done to verify the nomination because what the hell. And then I saw what else is in the same category and I'm sure I'm doing this all wrong because my first thought was that I don't even want to know which one of those anyone might think is better than the others. Of course it's not a competition, looking from the outside these things don't feel like a competition, but from this side the concept of comparing one against the other feels all squiffy. It's a function of knowing the people and knowing we have different styles and knowing that I like all of those and would never want there to be anything to suggest inequality between them, I'm sure, and it's a bit stupidly late to think of that once you've gone and followed through with the things to be done to put yourself into that situation, but it was a momentarily strange experience all the same. I'm very grateful to whoever thought to nominate me, anyway.
