teddy_radiatorI'm so grateful in general. I am sitting in a room in a house I own, surrounded by art sent from friends all over the world. I'm grateful to my talented friends here. You thrill, excite and inspire me daily.

miamadwyn and karelia and the others for putting together the ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
smokingbaby project. That as to be one of the most rewarding projects I've taken part in for a long time. I'm honoured to be involved in it.
I'm grateful to the Hubs for being so supportive in what I do. He listens to my plot conundrums, offers advice and possible solutions, reads my work and acts as an alpha. Subvers just wrote about how many husbands and family members don't really get what we do, and I am thrilled that mine does. He even read one of my fics for thesmokingbaby project, and it is turning into one of the most popular I submitted, and I'm proud of his abilities. I know that if he finds a job that will allow me to stay at home and write full time, he would do it without a qualm, as long as I'm happy. At least, I think he would!
I'm grateful that we have this amazing exchange coming up and that soon (and I'm trying sooooo hard to be patient) we will be showered with lovely fics. I'm going to roll around in them, dive and bathe in them, and drink my fill (when I'm excited, no metaphor is safe with me).
I'm grateful for a loving mom who has decided to take us out to lunch to our favourite restaurant on Tuesday - their homemade lasagne is to DIE for.
I'm grateful to many of you, for bringing me here in the first place. I'm grateful for my phone call withsempraseverus the other day, who made me laugh and inspired me. I'm grateful to mimimanderly for being the supreme being and force of nature she is. For justpinkpastel and sandlappershell and beffeysue and madeleone and majorjune for always encouraging me in every aspect of writing and daily life. I'm grateful for droxy and irishredlass69 for encouraging me to explore the dark side and howlingmojo and aebtissin for making me think outside my Severus comfort zone. stgulik is so precious, for her sterling beta work, because she makes me think about how to be a better writer. I'm sure she'll correct that previous sentence - something was wrong with it.
I apologise if I've left anyone out, and I know I have, but it's not because you are any less dear to me, but that I'm just a forgetful person.
