You guys... I can't... AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not only are we all Super Fantastic. We are Super Super Fantastic. We asked for everyone to pull out all the stops and be counted before we hit the reset button tomorrow night, and boy did we ever! My inbox runneth over with fic and graphics! I LOVE WHEN THAT HAPPENS!!!

Also in my inbox is a ton of notifications that people have updated their numbers!!! Which makes me squee! But we still have peeps who haven't updated so we do need to push and prod a bit. GO UPDATE YOUR NUMBERS!

AND there was an overwhelming response to what you all want to do next year. SO many good ideas! H & I think we've worked out a way to implement them all. (I think I said that already. I'm still waiting for the coffee to kick in.) I'm waiting to hear back from a couple of people and then we'll be looking for more from you. IT'S ALL SO EXCITING!!!

I LOVE THAT I DON'T HAVE TO ASK HOW AWESOME YOU'VE BEEN THIS WEEK! BECAUSE I HAVE THE PROOF IN MY INBOX!!!!

If you have the time, between posting words and updating your counts, go through the posts that have gone up in the last week. There are some great things out there, graphics, fic, ideas, and gushing. Especially read the gushing and let it warm you up a bit. This comm is not just H and I. This comm, all the support, help, encouragement, answers, questions, thoughts, and ideas, that is everyone, that is all of us. All of you!

You have absolutely made 2013 my best year so far. Let's keep up the awesome!

Numbers need to be updated before the first of the year. There is no "add it on to next month" this time around!

Also, there is still time for January Sign-up!

Have I mentioned that I'm excited for the counting?

300 words of supplication porn for kaige68

[tkeylasunset.livejournal.com]

I confessed to our Queen that I had screwed up my counts for the year. She said if I wrote 200 words of porn, she'd consider forgiving me. (Okay, that's not exactly what she said but it's close enough.)

Her 200 words of porn turned into 300 words of porn. I hope she can forgive me for going over the limit! :-)

Weekend Challenge - wallpaper (Into the Sunset)

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

OMG! I did a very simple graphic for this weekend's challenge because I am not very good at these at all - I originally thought I'd do H50 - Steve & Danny - going into the sunset, but talk about EPIC FAIL.

( Then I found this pic and gently softened it and added some of the text... )
