Okay. Everyone else is doing it! ;)

If you correctly guess which SeSa (or Yuletide! Although that would be significantly harder!) story I wrote, I'll write you a ficlet.

... IF YOU ALREADY KNOW, YOU TOTALLY DON'T GET TO GUESS. Because that's cheating. And I know if you know! So there! Or something!

Anyway, comments are screened, have at, although I dunno if anyone's gonna take me up on it. XD

Yuletide done and successfully posted last night.

SeSa done and successfully posted about twenty minutes ago.

Allow me to say that I love my SeSa beyond all reason, and I just hope that my recipient is as pleased with it as I am.

Also, oops, I just realized I never wrote a letter to my SeSa author. *guilts!!* But I'm fairly easy to please, so I'm sure I'll love whatever it is she came up with.

Anyway, off to finish getting ready for work. Nothing like working late to PUSH UP YOUR FIC CHALLENGE DEADLINES BY SEVEN HOURS...

Ahem. Anyway. ;)

DWNOGA authors have been revealed!

So I can finally officially say that the person who owns my soul for writing Cracking the Love Code is the wonderful and amazing adelate. Who received no fewer than three pieces of feedback from me the day stories went live, not counting my journal post, and probably would have received more had I not willfully sat on my hands and told myself that spamming my writer's inbox is not the best sign of lurve. ;)

My own story, Five, for sarahq, I have mixed feelings about. She liked it, and I'm ever so relieved about that, but I almost wish I could have done the bunny a bit more justice. Unfortunately, I got said bunny a bit too late in the game to really give it the workover it, and she, deserved, but for my first attempt at GSF, I don't think I did all that badly with it. So there we are.

......... Is it time for SeSa '06 yet?

Just over an hour left, and SeSa finally submitted.

That was... definitely a different experience than any year I'd done it up until now. I didn't even have a half-living bunny until, like, a week ago. And nothing really concrete until, like, the last couple days. I almost feel bad for it, and the story is shorter than most of my previous ones (although, I think, not all), but... I actually like it.

I surprised myself on this one, and there are definitely some bits that I'm actually pretty impressed with, so I just hope that my recipient likes it, and that it's at least pretty close to what she wanted. :)

If she didn't... well, I did my best with something I didn't think I'd be able to do at all, so.. yay to that. Or something.

And now I head to bed. ;)

As such, I would like to one-more-time-for-good-measure!!! thank ninjetti75 for my most delightful story, Here With You, I Have All That I Desire. It's just all kinds of sweet and wonderful.

And now I can also say in public that I wrote It Came From the Sky!!! Which I highly enjoyed doing, for the record. Because it's not every day you get to get to write something quite so humorously off-the-wall. So, really, thanks also to halimede for the request! (And for liking it, despite the fact that I've already thanked her for THAT roughly 472983421398473 times.)

Is it sad that I want SeSa '05 to start already? :b

I'm on all sorts of a big-ass posting kick today.

Now that the DWNOGA deadline has come and gone, I will take a deep breath and say... Wow, I really really have an unholy love for my story.  I am actually honest-to-God satisfied with it.  Which really makes me all kinds of happy and a half.  Because I could pick apart my last two rather brutally.  (Although I do like them both, on the average.  Just... no unholy love!)

I finished and submitted it early this afternoon, after a beta by my loverly beaux.  So I had it totally taken care of when I went to work..... (Which actually really felt kinda weird.  I was standing out at the lumber register, and later briefly at the return desk, without frantically writing more story on receipt tape!)  Talk about a weight off my mind.

And now...  I WANT IT TO BE CHRISTMAS EVE ALREADY MRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!

But yes.  I think I quite admirably took care of my recipient's requests, despite initially having no idea how on earth I'd pull it off, had a hell of a fun time doing it, and despite my crazy night o' writing last night, am totally shot in the ass about it.

Life is pretty good right now, methinks.

My last-minute SeSa panic wasn't supposed to start until sometime tomorrow afternoon! :b

Which is until I remembered I have to work until 11 tomorrow.

Which means I won't get home til 11:30-ish.

Which means...... I really should get my ass in gear and finish the story tonight.

..... About halfway-ish through.... I can do this.
