Congrats, Tracy, on your wins!  So excited for you!

I'm also super excited that Song for the Undead was runner-up - thanks for your votes!  Rose and I have been working hard on that story for 3+ years, and it's finally nearing the end, so this means a lot to both of us!

And holy shit, I was totally not expecting to be among the winners for best author in this category, given the calibre of writers nominated.  To tie with Mare, who is a master in this genre, is a huge honor!  Again, thank you!!  And congrats, Mare - like I said, you are a master!!

Congrats Tracy!!!! :)  I'm so excited for you!

And congrats to all in this category.  Thriller/Suspense is definitely no small feat to pull off! That's why I tend to hang out with llamas instead.  More drama...less fear. :)

Okay first let me say that this was a complete surprise. I was up against a lot of my fanfic heroes and favorite authors in both categories, I honestly didn't think I'd win. I was so shocked I just cried....I am truly grateful people liked Figured You Out so much. Its a huge honor just to be nominated and to win the first time I am ever nominated....t hat really is amazing to me. Congrats to everyone and thank you all. I can't be any happier than I am tonight.

Thank you, Julie. Like I said many times, when I wrote it originally I didn't think it would take me anywhere. I'm constantly surprised by the reaction it gets and I'm grateful.

Congrats Tracy!

Thanks for everyone who voted for Undead. Thriller is a hard genre! (But an epic song! LOL)

And Mare, Julie, there's not many who can really match your level in that genre. :)

Congratulation s Tracy!  I'm putting your story on my list to read next since clearly it's a favorite and somehow I haven't read it yet!!

And everyone else, Julie and Rose - You know how much I love Song for the Undead!  And Mare, I've read and loved so many of your stories too...

so many great authors :)

Thank you so much everyone. Even a day later I am shocked I won because there were so many talented writers in this category, most of who were my fanfic heroes that I looked up to and still do. So its a big honor to win.

I hope you do check out the story and enjoy as well. It is my favorite one I've written :) thanks!
