Nominations!

[aadler]

 
I was very pleased to be informed that “Dusk Over Pompeii” and “Phantom 309” have been nominated at the wicked_awards. (I suspect velvetwhip.) Several other fine stories/authors have been nominated, so check it out … and add to it if you have any favorites, because the nominating period is still open.

Phantom was me, but Dusk was nom'ed by someone else. See? You have multiple fans!

I’m greedy for more, but happy to have what I do.

Funny that I didn’t learn I was once considered a BNF until after I no longer possessed any such status.

I was considered a BNF ages ago myself I'm told. Pretty sure I'm not one now.

Dusk was actually me. The whole idea of them dodging the transformation, that's just brilliant.

Well, thank you. Both for the nomination, and for the mini-praise you tossed in while acknowledging the nom.

That story … well, it does have a way of getting to you, doesn’t it?

[dragonyphoenix.livejournal.com]

It really does.

Kind of ironically, Dusk Over Pompeii was one of the stories I was trying to remix for Remix Madness. (I'll finish it because I want your opinion of it, but I wanted to chime in with that here because I am not hopping on the bandwagon, the bandwagon is following me. :P)

I look forward to seeing what you might do with that idea. Your approach is different from mine, but you continue to grow while I … continue to polish the growth that’s already there.

And you didn't use your morning wood icon for that metaphor?

(Not in posts to my daughter. Which sroni is.)

Ah, if I knew you two were related, I'd lost track of it. Cool that you're both in the fandom. None of my family is into it.

Yup! He got me into fanfic and onto livejournal. And he might be the biggest reason that I don't always consider my stories to be as good as other people think they are; he's encouraged me and told me what I can work on, so it's not that he's done anything to hurt my confidence as a writer or anything like that, but I have literally grown up comparing my writing to his.

Congratulations on the noms!

As an eight-time wicked_awards winner yourself, your congrats carry some weight.
