OMG, Is It Here Already? *Slinks*

So it seems like it's Awards season already. *hides and goes to get the Tums* I'm not going to be promoting this year, due to a little incident on f_s and the fact that I don't want to be accused of having the popularity vote again, but I want all of you to get out there and READ and nom some new writers! I'm going to set aside some time to really look closer at the fic available so I can do even more noms than last year (and yes, I nom every year in nearly every catagory.) 

Let's really try to make things be fandom-wide this year. You love a fic that's amazing, but the author isn't well-known? REC IT! Let us all see. That's the whole point of the awards. To show the writers how much we love their work! And I know from experience just how amazing it is to know that people love and appreciate the hard work you do. I'll never forget the shock and surprise of the first awards season; I couldn't get over the fact that Little Secrets was that well-loved. Let someone else out there feel that awed and amazed. Stand up and make your opinion known.

Now, if you need me, I'll be hiding in the basement with my antacid. *slinks away*

I don't even think I have anything to promote this year, besides my Xmas and V-day fics for 12Days, and a one-shot in my Greatest Gift verse. O_o Damn, I really have been a slacker lately, haven't I?

And now that Aftermath and LS are both officially off the table, it almost feels weird. Except you have Heirs, of course. :p

*clings*

We'll get through awards season together, hon. I'll bring more TUMS! :p

You've been dabbling in a lot of other fandoms, though, love. The only reason we have so much is because we only stay in Superman.That doesn't make you any kind of slacker. *snugs*

And it is pretty weird, although we still have the oneshots (one of which is Unfamiliar. *LOL*). And, of course, Heirs. But I'm not sure enough has happened in Heirs yet for it to win anything. I dunno. We'll wait and see. As usual, I have no idea what will nommed, if anything. I'll be happy with whatever I get, if anything.

*clings* I think everyone in fandom knows that I HATE Awards season. I'm always happier when it's over and done. Although I'm not going to fret over it this year, if I can help it. *twitch*

True, true. I did finish a prompt table for the Free For All, and have been working on the other 2 I have, and SPN and Trek have been eating my brain. :p

I just went and did my promo post, though, and it turns out I had 8 eligible fics. More than I'd thought, mostly b/c of 2 that were posted last June that I hadn't included last year, and "Endorsement" and "Not Your Father's Plan", which I'd totally blanked on. XD

And hon, you wouldn't believe what a diva I turn into over these things. O_O Behind the scenes I get so ugly, it's so wrong. *huggles you tight and bites nails*

My worst problem is how torn I feel. Part of me wants to win, the other part feels bad because it means that someone else has to lose for me to win. And some people can't handle losing. I always feel like it's a double-edged sword in my case.

That said, it's such an honor to win them. They really do mean a lot to me.
