What a ride this summer's ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
sshg_promptfest has been. A huge and very heartfelt thank you to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
iulia_linnea for her amazing mod work. You are a great mod, and thank you for all the hard work and dedication you brought to this fest. It is so appreciated by all of us.
I was thrilled to bits that I received not one but TWO prompt 'gifts' (I realise there's a difference between the Promptfest and the Exchange but I still think of them as gifts since they're so awesome to receive). The first was the stunninglemonade8's Sevnunnos, which depicted a moment from my fic Witchhiker's Guide To Beltane. This was so thrlling to me. Lemonade, as you know, was my gateway to fanart for HP back in 2010, and I fangurl her so much. A truly warm, funny, talented individual, and I feel so privileged to call her friend and collaborator. Thank you again, sweetie!!
And if that wasn't awesome enough, the amazingstarduchess wrote the beautifully poignant His Sacrificed Soul. What an incredibly haunting. well-crafted story. It fit my prompt (no mean feat there) so wonderfully. It was evocative and heartwrenching, and I loved every moment of it. Thank you so much!
And now I can confess that I wrote the unhappily ever after Burn Down The Mission fortophoenix. I had planned to approach her prompt as a comedy, but alas, DMuse had other plans. I've never written a story quite like it, but I'm pretty happy with the results nevertheless. stgulik, my eternal thanks for all your hard work betaing my fic while at the same time writing your delightful Angel Investor. So proud of you! :)
I'd also like to thankpearle9240 for creating all the lovely userpics. Mine are just beautiful. Thank you, Pearle!! ♥
There were a huge amount of great fics and glorious art - I especially lovedtoblass' Strawberry Kiss, as well as Lemonade8's darkly delicious Charitable Donation. which makes me shiver in the best possible way.
I want to thank each and every person who contributed to this fest. It is obvious there was a lot of hard work and time and care spent in every single entry, and all of us must be commended for that. This is our ship; if we want it to remain afloat, we have to take good care of it and one another. If you haven't had the chance to read/view all the entries, please try to. Your comments and praise are appreciated and necessary. We have to encourage one another - what else are we here for?
There were so many others I'd like to mention, but it's 2am and I'm dying here, so I'll post this now and squee some more tomorrow!
