Squee!!!

I am a real newbie fanfic author - I think I've written a grand total of four fics that were more than drabbles. I've written nothing at all since June. And I keep reading stories by really good authors, like rahirah and flurblewig and redeem147 and jwaneeta and nandibble and cousinjean and theohara and and...(the list goes on and on), and have basically inferiority complexed myself into complete immobility.

Just for the heck of it, I put my four whole stories on fanfiction.net yesterday, figuring they'd be lost among the hundreds (thousands?) of other BtVS stories, but - hey - nothing to lose, right?

So today I come home, check my email, and have five reviews! Whee!! Plus one from the Buffy Fiction Archive, which was also a first.

A Big Name Author I am not, nor will I ever be. But this just might encourage me to go for #5...

(My new Spike icon is looking down and laughing at me.)

Thanks for putting me in such esteemed company! :-)

Yay for your reviews! It's a buzz, isn't it? And very addictive...! So yeah, bring on #5!!!

Feedback is very addictive, I must say.

I think you're pretty esteemed. Your stories are always fun to read and get lots of comments. Plus, nominated for an award!

I think I'm in love with my new icon. He just looks so darned cute!
