Tell Us About It

[ozsaur]

Our first Ficathon is over and the turnout was great! We, the mods, are so thrilled with all the wonderful stories submitted by so many talented writers. I, for one, am deeply impressed by the quality of the stories that came from this challenge. Every writer came up with a fresh new way of using their cliche. I applaud you all

As a person who has only begun reading in this fandom in the past couple of months--and who is very much a reader, not a writer--I'd just like to thank all of you for this wonderful ficathon. I apologize for not commenting more . . . but I actually did read every single story posted and enjoyed all of them very, very much! I am now having the pleasant experience of following up and reading other stories by these authors. So I just wanted to let you know that you gave lots of pleasure to folks out here, even if we've failed to let you know about it individually!

That's so sweet of you! Wonderful to hear that you just joined the fandom and had this available--it was a who's who of Sentinel authors, I'm telling you!

I know it's a lot when you're reading 80 great stories at once, but if you're reading more fic by some of the authors, just a one-line feedback is so, so much appreciated. Makes us feel like we're not throwing these stories down a bottomless well when we're done with them! *g*

Me too

It's been great having so many classy/classic stories to read all at once, and the LJ format worked really well too - makes it easy to make a comment and feel involved... I hope the writers enjoyed it half as much as we lurkers/readers.
Thanks for organizing, and hope it happens all over again soon. Please?

So far, it seems to have been a positive experience for everyone. :-)

Thanks for your comments and I'm glad you enjoyed the ficathon. The timing of the next one is still in the air, but there will be a next one. This was so much fun for us. It is good to hear that others had a good experience too.

Thank you for your comment. Input from readers is just as important to us as that of the writers. I'm glad you enjoyed the stories in the ficathon, so I would like to encourage you to send feedback. Believe me, every writer loves to hear from readers who enjoyed their hard work. With so many stories, it might not be easy, but truly, you will make the writers day.

Thanks again, and I'm glad you enjoyed the ficathon.
