I just want to take a moment to thank everyone for their profuse and VERY kind comments on my most recent fic, and to thank everyone who recced it as well.

There are a few words, when used in reviews, that remind me of everything I strive for in my writing. When people tell me what I'm writing - especially in fanfiction - is "real" or "true", I feel no higher praise can possibly be given. It's beyond words, how satisfying that feels (though at the same time it does makes me wonder if I'll ever manage such a feat again!), and I am grateful, really and truly grateful, to all those who responded and recced my wee little fic.

I don't think you've made my ego swell to dangerous proportions, for, again, I fear I won't be able to manage such a repeat performance, but all these very kind words have done a great deal to remind me why I write at all, or rather what I've always been striving for in my prose. And for that, I thank you. You're all wonderful, and I'll bust the lip of anyone who says our fandom is a violent and threatening place. :D
