Congratulations to all the winners. Hope this nudge will inspire all those first time winners to write lots more fanfic for the gentle readers to enjoy in the coming months and years.

who sends a 'special' congrats out to Chris Carr for finally 'messing up her red ribbon theme' on the archives LOL, Tank. And that reminds me that we need to thank someone else - Lauren, for setting aside some free time each year to ensure that all those ribbons go up next to stories on the Archive. LabRat

Thanks so much to K-Comm for all of their hard work putting in such a fun event. Really, I looked forward to it for weeks and had such a great time! You guys are wonderful. And thank you so much to everyone who read, nommed and voted for The Butterfly Legacy. I can't tell you how thrilled (and shocked) I was to have it make such a good showing. Really, I cannot thank you enough. Yeah!! Great job everone. Lynn

I want to thank K-Com for organizing all of this. I had a blast watching the action, and I cracked up so many times at the jokes and craziness. I especially loved the "testing" thing someone did up front (can't remember who at the moment)--it made it feel so realistic, lol. And of COURSE I have to thank all the writers who create these wonderful stories. Despite the pressure of having only a week to read them all, I thoroughly enjoyed devouring the 200-some eligible fics, and had so much fun nominating and voting. The whole event was a great experience (my first Kerth ceremony  ), and I hope someday to be able to be present at another. (As things look now, I will not be able to attend next year's--I'll be spending a year in Central America without regular Internet access.) Thank you everyone!!! 
Don't point. You make holes in the air and the faeries escape.

Hmm, it occurs to me that I should jump in here and congratulate all the winners  Especially our first time winners, and especially those who've been nominated before without winning. I love seeing new winners. And I love seeing new attenders at the ceremony -- I'm so glad all these new people showed up to have fun with us I'd also like to thank those members of the K-Com and support staff who (unlike me  ) actually did stuff this year, and who made the night such a smashing success. It's a privilege for me to be able to play around backstage, hang out with y'all, and bask in reflected glory. PJ

I think I missed a piece of news here: And welcome and thank you to the new K-Comm members who will be carrying the torch next year! But thank you to K-comm for a great ceremony and congratulations to the winners and the nominees. It was wonderful to see new names in attendance. Artemis

Just saying thank you to those who voted for my story. I had no idea that something that I jotted down one morning would turn into a series, or win for Best Super Short. Maybe I should try just writing things off the cuff more often <g>

I spent a week camping with a group of sugar-high nine and ten year olds. (Don't recommend it.) Came home with a case of poison ivy (scratch, scratch.) After all of that-- and there was no coffee, just thought that needed saying, I'm setting the scene -- what a great thing to come home to!! I'll gush just the tiniest bit. Look away if need be. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! That's not eloquent, but it's heartfelt. Thank you to the readers, the voters, to Kcomm for their hard work and dedication. Thank you to Labrat for BRing every single word I write, and with such good humor and wealth of patience. (I whine a lot.) Thank you to Lynn for issuing the 'Lois and Clark Get a Pet' challenge, otherwise I would never have written Lois and cat break into Clark's apartment. (Not clever enough to think of that on my own.) In fact, in case of a win, I asked Lynn to thank herself for her "Own Astounding Awesomeness" on my behalf. (I'll be interested to see if she was brave enough when the transcript goes up.  ) Congratulations to *all* winners and nominees! It was a great year for fic, so many hard choices. We're a rich fandom because of it! CC ps- thanks, A.nita!
