I wanted to thank all of you for submitting who you felt belonged on the top ten AC writers of all time list. Honestly, we had a much bigger response than I was expecting.

There were 45 names submitted for consideration and from there, the ones with the most votes went on to make it into the top ten. Starting next month, we'll be discussing and celebrating each person, starting with 91 and ending with 100! I still can't believe we are making it to 100! How awesome is that?

So, I will be announcing number ten on our last next week. I want to make sure she knows first. There was a tie for this last place. SO I will announce the runner -up right now.

Our founding father Chaos. I really REALLY hoped he would make the top ten because without him there would be no us. Truth is, he only has one completed story up on the site and it was the first one we ever discussed, so I decided to give the slot to his tie-mate  instead.

But please, if you haven't read the story, "Ground Zero" go check it out!

Awww yes, yay chaos! For without him giving us a home when ff.net booted us, who knows if our fanfic community would be going as strong as it is even now.

And 45 names? Wow I'm impressed.

Okay time to announce the first member of our top ten authors of all time!

Coming in at number ten...which is actually #91 lol is...

*drum roll*

FILIKLEPTO! aka Hachi AKA Chrissy! :) a girl who goes by many names! lol

So come on in and tell us why you love her so much!!

Normally the next step would be to open a poll and let you decide which of the top ten's stories we will feature but in Chrissy's case she only has two novels on the site. One of which "On the Rails" we have already discussed, so that pretty much leaves "On Nightingale Hill" So in August we will talk about that one!

Again much congrats to her!! :)

Yay Chrissy!  She's a fantastic writer; I just wish she'd update more often!  I love On Nightingale Hill, one of the few fantasy fanfics I got really into.
