Hello, lovely f-list!

What was going to be a post to talk about the wonder that is [profile] portus_envyhas grown to a two-fold posting.  What a week it has been!


When [personal profile] bluestocking79and I set up [profile] portus_envy as a way to offer a central place for authors and artists to post their prompts, offers, fics, ficlets, drabbles, icons and art, we figured that it would be a great distraction while much of the f-list was away at Portus.  Distracting?  




If that weren't enough, I came home today to peruse LJ and discovered that The New Library Awards winners have been announced at [profile] tnl_awards.


As a newbie author, it's always a nail-biting proposition to see how a story is received.  Getting nominated and seconded was really cool but I honestly did not expect either story to win anything given the competition.  

Are you guys sure that you want to be encouraging this? :D


Thank you to those who voted, and to everybody who encouraged me throughout the whining writing process.   A special award should go to [personal profile] annietalbot who endures more than her share of that whining during the writing.  Without her, there would be no stories from me.  Not one.  Also thanks to [profile] ordinary_magic and [personal profile] ariadne1 who lent a discerning eye and great advice throughout the writing of these stories.  The best part of the whole writing process has been developing friendships with each of you.  What a gift!

*glomps you all.

Congratulations to the other winners on my f-list :  [personal profile] ferporcel, [personal profile] bluestocking79, [personal profile] juniperus, [profile] zeegrindylows, [personal profile] lariope, [personal profile] miamadwyn, [profile] lulabelle72, [profile] camillo, [profile] mad_queen_mab, [profile] angelmischa, and [personal profile] juno_magic for their awards (some, multiply!).  And thanks to [profile] angelmischa for putting this all together and also for allowing me to participate as judge in some of the categories!  Woot!
