"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.

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.

Wow! Thank you! I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed it. It's hard to tell, when you're the speaker, if you're entertaining the audience or whether they're just too polite to fall asleep or walk out. :)

Man, we should all have put our LJ names on our name tags. I've realized there were a whole whack of people there whose names I knew from LJ but didn't recognize... you being one of them.
