The Awesome April Challenge

[turps]

The very last stories of the Awesome April Challenge have been posted.

First we have a selection of ficlets from msktrnanny. There's something for everyone in there, and I spent very happy time reading through them all. So go give her some love.

KC's Amazing Ficlet Collection

It seems right somehow the last story is by randomling. She opened the challenge and she's closing it too.

It's Chris/Joey, and it's just fantastic.

There is No Wrong Side

And that's the end of The Awesome April Challenge.

At the beginning of this challenge I worried that I'd end up filling in for many days. That didn't happen at all.

My target for new popfic words was 3,000 at the beginning of this. We ended up with just over 90,000

We've had 47 stories, both long and short, many many different pairings and threesomes, plus a handful of character centric and gen stories.

All I can say is, thank you! Thank you to the writers, to the people who commented to each story. To every single one of you that's made this challenge so successful. You're all AWESOME!

Now I'm passing on the torch. raynedanser is hosting the It's Gonna Be May challenge. Keep the flame burning and go join over there too.

As for me, I can stop spamming you all, which I'm sure people will be pleased about. Good timing too as in the last few hours I suspect I'm coming down with a celuitis attack, so I'm off to get the good drugs. Josh, everyone else I owe mail to, I'll get to you asap

Thanks for doing this! It was an Awesome April. (And I totally didn't mind your spam.)

You're most welcome. It was a fun thing to do :)

( I don't know, I suspect 5 posts a day was pushing it at times *g* )

Terri, thank you so much for doing this. You rock, most seriously and awesomely, and while I haven't had a chance to read everything as it's been posted, I know I'm going to have a great time doing more catching up and reading (especially since I'm on holiday next week!).

And I'm definitely looking forward to doing the same in May!

You are so welcome. Thank you for all your fabulous fic.

I think May will be awesome too!

Chiming in with another thank you - this was such a great initiative, and I can't wait till I can finally sit down and read through them all. ♥

You're very welcome. And it couldn't have happened without all the people who submitted stories. So thank you &hearts

This has been a fabulous month because of you. You're such a fabulous host!

And I really hope the good drugs kick the celuitis in the ass. So to speak ;o)

[turps33.livejournal.com]

I really enjoyed April a lot. It was fun.

Thank you so much for taking part. It meant a lot that you did.

D'oh, I was afraid it might be something like that when you seemed to have gone quiet for a while...then you posted and I was hopeful you were just busy, and now this. I hate being right sometimes, you know?

Take Care, Terri-Luv. You did awesome for April, now relax and put your feet up. Literally, even. ;D

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Man Josh, the last few days have been a bitch and I feel bad because all I want to do is gush and that's not happening just yet. Believe me, as soon as I physically can you'll be getting the full on flail.

Woot! How much fun was April? Thanks for running it!

[turps33.livejournal.com]

April has been fantastic!
