Felix Award for Best Short Story (14)
« on: August 01, 2009, 04:12:40 PM »

Shawn: I'd like to keep this one as short as possible, so...the Felix for Best Short Story goes to:




Chaos: I cannot tell you how much this one surprised me. I have the tendancy to be a bit long winded and babbley...so actually having a story that qualifies for "short"...totally unexpected. Plus, honestly, I didn't think anyone at AC had actually read this story, so I was rather surprised to see it nominated, and even more surprised that it actually won. Especially since it's the only fic from the Criminal Minds fandom on this site, so…obviously not the most popular fandom around here ;).  So thank you to everyone who read it despite it's fandom, and thank you to whoever nominated it!

Shawn: Thank y--

Chaos: Wait. I'm not done! I also want to take a moment to just reiterate my thanks to the mods, Mare and Julilly who have really kept things running pretty smoothly during my rather frequent and sometimes lengthy absences. And to everyone who posts their stories in the archives and everyone who chats in the forums of AC, and especially those who take the time to read and review others' fics! Without all of you, this site would've faded to oblivion years ago. So *IS DROWNED OUT BY LOUD BLARING MUSIC*

Chaos: I can't believe I get cut off on my own site...*facepalm*

Go on to the Next Award

I think Ash's acceptance speech was longer than his short story!  :D

Geesh, Ash, I thought I was going to be here all night reading that speech.  :P Just kidding. Congrats guys! You're both awesome!

(P.S. Since Shawn IS hosting, I think everyone should check out Psych's season 4 premiere this Friday, August 7, at 10/9c.)
