Thanks and Recs

[geekmama]

Two more days and I'll be back at work. It's been a lovely couple of weeks off, though, and good fic has been icing on the cake. I owe big thanks to...

tiamary who wrote me the lovely and so very funny Home for the Twelfth Night in the merrypirates fic exchange;

savepurness, who wrote me the beautiful and angsty The Ghosts of Christmases Past in the 3fan_holiday fic exchange;

Oh wow! So much good stuff that I don't have time to catch up with! *Adds to memories and looks wistfully at a calendar*
And a rec for meeee. Thank you! I'm glad if I helped make sense of AWE.

[geekmama]

Thanks to your deft and hilarious interpretation, I can now watch the end of AWE without wincing much. I am hoping to reread the whole thing soon, though (as with viva_gloria and tessabeth) I have a very hard time isolating lines I love, there are so many.

I hope you and your family had a wonderful Christmas!

Thanks again--it's especially great to get new recs for old fics because I wasn't around in the golden age of Pirates. (OK, I was around, just not around Pirates fandom. I'm slow.)
Wonder if you should include a slash and NC17 warning for Nuts...

[geekmama]

I wasn't around in the golden age of Pirates.

I wasn't around for the squeeful first six months, either -- had no idea fandom existed as it does on the internet, or that people besides me wrote fanfic, lol! It was quite a revelation.

Perhaps I should put a warning here -- though your headers are always quite complete in that regard.

Thanks for the rec, it's very kind of you! That story is an oldie but goodie :D I wrote it the second I came home from watching PoTC the first time.

[geekmama]

You're very welcome! Those were the days, weren't they?

And it was for meeeeeee, and I STILL want to name it George and hug it and pet it and squeeze it.

[geekmama]

You lucky thing! I wasn't around then, and missed a lot of the great stuff produced when pirate squee was shiny and new.

(((hugs))) Thank you so much for reccing my Secret Santa fic "The Christmas Stranger"! I hope the last few parts live up to expectations! (Hopefully, I'll be posting Part 4 either tonight or tomorrow, and I think there'll be only one last chapter after that).

Since it's un-betaed, I hope you're not finding too much "wrong" with the story! (I did find one typo I made in Part 3, that I edited and cleaned up yesterday. Oops!) ;-)

Thanks again, and much happiness to you in 2010! :-)

I wasn't looking at it in that way, of course, but there were no errors that I noticed. Thank you for going to so much trouble for me - I can't wait to read more!
