Home Safe and a Happy Surprise

[dragonydreams]

I am back home safe and sound. My dad was thoroughly surprised to find me and my brother standing in the entrance to the restaurant Saturday night. He said it was the best 60th birthday ever. I hadn't been home in almost a year, so it was especially great being there. It always shocks me how much the city changes each time I visit.



When I got home tonight I saw that the winners for the Bodice Ripper Awards has just been announced. Loss and Love won for Best Het Pairing Fic! It was the ONLY Willow/Giles fic to place. Squeee!!!!

I was delighted to get the chance to vote for you for something! You know what a fan of your work I am! And I even like your Willow/Giles fics! You have to deserve an award for that alone!

I saw you won some BRA awards too. I was floored to see that I had come in ahead of you for the category I won in. Congrats to you on all your wins.

Thanks Heather! I'm especially excited because this is my first award from a Giles-centric awards site.

I'm not sure I've read that one of yours or I might have. I can NOT remember titles to save my soul includnig my own.

Congratulations!!! I'm so happy for you!

And I'm glad you're back safe and sound and that you had such a good visit.

I wrote it for a W/G ficathon. It takes place a year after BtVS ended. Willow takes Giles out because he'd been recently dumped. And since it was me who wrote it, they end up in bed.

Thanks Danielle! A day later I'm still grinning whenever I think about this win.

Every time I'm home I try to remember to make my next visit sooner rather than later. Close to a year between visits is too long.

I'll have to go look itup. I prefer future stuff for Giles being with any of the Scoobie girls for obvious reasons.
