Congrats and many hugs!

Thanks!

Yay!!! GO YOU!!!! :-D

And, btw, I like the new layout. :-D (And now you're probably going to tell me it's not exactly "new" :-P)

sara_merry99 July 31 2007, 16:33:40 UTC

Thanks!! I'm pretty excited.

And I'm glad you like the layout. I'm still insanely pleased with it, though a couple of folks have complained about how dark it is, which makes me a little nervous.

ladyshrew July 31 2007, 21:59:38 UTC

There's nothing wrong with dark! The font is clearly visible!

friscokitty July 30 2007, 16:04:21 UTC

That is WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (((HUGS))) Congratulations!!! :D

WELL DESERVED. And Glad WBF was a close runner-up. You are both awesome writers!!!!

And Glad WBF was a close runner-up.

Oh my gosh, me too!! I just hated that I was up head to head against a friend and I'm so glad the vote was close!

She writes *so* beautifully, even the stuff that's too dark for me is gorgeously written (what I've read of it).

farad July 31 2007, 16:57:21 UTC

yeah, you both have an awesome gift for style and connotation. I share her love of darkness, but you have a deep power of subtlety. I envy you both!!!

sara_merry99 July 31 2007, 17:23:57 UTC

Now don't you go getting all neurotic on me Miss Ma'am, because you write beautifully as well. I love the way you get into their heads so very well, and your stories keep calling me back over and over again. (I can't *count* how many times I've read Men Who Value Integrity and Forging Copper (which is such a freaking awesome title for that story).)

Don't be embarrassed to be excited about it

I get shy very easily. :D Apparently even in my own LJ. :D

Thanks so much!!

mirnell July 31 2007, 16:36:10 UTC

Yeah, I know the feeling, I'm the same way... But its still something to be proud of!

::nods:: Just a little hard for me. But I'm awfully pleased!
