Hugs? Oh, there are many hugs I'd have to give. Well, maybe not that many, but to some people who have become very special to me during the last year.
First of all, there's
Nancy (classicalla). She has become a friend rather quickly, and I desperately miss her constant company. I just hope you get to read this and find some time again.
Then, there's someone who's only lurking on this English board but our hotshot on the German board.
Anne, who is responsible for most of our gfic and nfic. I'm glad to have you as a friend as well, and I'll never forget our meeting. That was priceless.
A hug to
Vanda Detroit. We had lots of lovely chats, and I sorely miss those intense late night chats . But I could still kiss you (chastely on the cheek, of course!) for setting up and managing the German board.
Another big hug to
bakasi. I like her sense of humor and, of course, her countless great fics. And let's not start with your contributions to the RRs we have under construction... Pity you don't have that much time any more. Still, I hope I'll be able to give you that hug in person sometime soon.
A very special hug to
Ann (TOC) and her very thorough, very inspiring, lovely, lenghty, awesome, insightful and simply priceless feedback. I don't think I'd have been able to write a single full story without it. Ann, you rock!
To name someone who hasn't been mentioned yet (and seems to be pretty much on hiatus): A few hugs to
Woody. You've made me laugh so often with your unique sense of humor. Just... *Where* are you?
Someone else unfortunately on hiatus:
Darcy (DSDrqagon). Here's a hug for setting me straight on some false assumptions. (You know what I'm talking about...) It was an eye-opener. Thank you for that!
Last but not least, another group hug for
all the wonderful people who keep this board alive, be it with their amazing stories or with the hard work they put into it. Thank you very, very much for your care!
