Going Kerfuffle-Free

[desoto_hia873]

I just wanted to say that the purpose of my last post was to stress the integrity of the RDA judges and not to point fingers at any specific people. I can, of course, really only speak on the subject of integrity with regard to myself, but I do believe that the other judges involved in the RDAs were just as earnest about trying to do a good job as I was.

Also, there are many more deserving authors in this fandom than there are awards. Please don't put too much stock in the results of the RDAs or any other fanfic awards. They're a nice form of peer-recognition, but they are very far from the last word on the quality of anyone's writing. And, truly, they were never intended to slight anybody.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled kerfuffle-free programming.

And also to the inevitable commercial break:

Serenity. Coming soon to a threatre near you. Contains the Recommended Daily Intake of Whedony-goodness and is a damn fine way to spend two hours of your life. Go see it. Twice. 'Cause we want a sequel.

:-)

It's in honor of my bagpipe playing grandfather, I used to go by WeeBzm on AOL, which was for Wee Besom, which means Little Devil. My mom used to call me that:)
