Another nom! :)

2009-06-02T08:25:50Z

It's overwhelming. Besides a very warm reception of the first chapter of my current BtVS story, Black Magic White Lies, today I've got an email with a notification that my previous story, She Will Remember Him? has been nominated in Round 17 at Spuffy Awards as Best Short Story and Best Fluffy Spuffy.

Thank you whoever nominated me!

I tried to figure out why I suddenly started getting nominations and awards, and I think I should blame my beta deird1 for the success of She Will Remember Him? She did wonderful job on this fic and right now she helps me with Black Magic White Lies, making the process of polishing the story an entertaining and thoroughly enjoyable experience. And, in case of BMWL, I'm also incredibly grateful to lusciousxander, who provides me with great insights into characters' inner lives. You rock, guys!
