"Good Night. Good Luck. Win Awards." a.k.a. A Brief CA & FOF Update

[rj_anderson]

The 2004 Alias Festival of Fic results are in, and wow! I'm astonished and thrilled. What You Never Knew You Wanted won awards for Outstanding Weiss Characterization (1st Place), Outstanding Syd/Weiss Romance (also 1st), and Outstanding Long Story (3rd)! I really did not expect this at all! Thanks so much to everyone who voted for me. And congratulations to all the other winners!

As for last weekend's trip to Convention Alley, I will soon have more -- lots more -- to report. Stay tuned to learn about the Worst Traffic Jam Ever, hear some shiny new HP theories and find out how my Snape presentation went. Also, find out why the new hot LJ interest is stalking* Steve Vander Ark (though if you were at CA, you'll know the answer to that already).
--
* By which I mean "stalking" in the nicest, purely virtual (and most legal) kind of way. Naturally. And I haven't actually got around to doing any of it yet. So it's more a sort of vague, theoretical stalking. But you get the idea.

Congrats on your awards! There'd be no justice in the world if your Sweissfic hadn't won. :)

I look forward to your reports on CA. And I must thank you once again for coming to the rescue on Saturday morning and agreeing to the quick switch in scheduling. I must remember to add 'stalking Steve Vander Ark' to my list of interests. :)

Wish I could have heard your presentation. Heck, wish I could have heard *any* of the presentations. The joys of being behind the scenes!

I just wanted to let you know that I really enjoyed your presentation. In fact it was one of the few that lived up to not only being an academic presentation but also entertaining and interesting,

And Steve was highly entertaining.

It was very nice to listen to your presentation and if they are any indication of how you write, I'm not surprised that you won those awards.

Steve is such a great speaker. He was fantastic at Nimbus and was just as good at CA.

Congratulations on all those awards! (I don't know Alias fandom at all, but oh well).

Re Convention Alley, it was a hoot to meet you finally after having read your Snape stories and wibbled occasionally at you in LJ!

Speaking of Snape stories, that Holmesian Snape I mentioned is here (http://www.livejournal.com/users/sinick/6490.html)
