NFE Reveals

So, [livejournal.com profile] snacky and [livejournal.com profile] caramelsilver have run the best NFE ever, with terrific fic and wow, what a roller coaster.  The reveals and full story summary are up

I am the greatest anon fail ever, and I will post more later, but suffice to say:

I am [livejournal.com profile] jess_in_time and wrote Food for Thought which is written as a series of Live Journal entries, complete with attempts at teen slang and extensive visuals.

I also wrote the last story that went up yesterday, for [livejournal.com profile] anastigmatfic, I love not man the less but nature more. You can also read it here   I owe a huge number of thank yous and research notes and yeah, some meta too as this is the so-called "kingmaking" story and that I have been meaning to do for years.  It was a really personal and emotional thing for me to complete that story and enormous challenge.  More later on that.

There is lovely work here in the NFE.  Please go read and review the stories presented.  A special thanks to [livejournal.com profile] bedlamsbard for her story to me, Written in the Dust. LJ is also screwing with user names again. Every time I click on the edit button, it starts moving names around.

Re: The Revels and everything else

Thank you and I appreciate you saw in these parts what I intended. I've written reams of navel-gazing on the subject of those final three challenges -- Smoke, Walk, and Revel. I don't think I'll post it - it's even more self-absorbed then Jess_in_Time is. The essence of the Revel was why I entered the fandom in 2008. And... just spent 15 minutes rambling and I'm cutting that too. As the story began to take shape over the last month, Snacky has been walking me through it and she knew the challenges I'd set for myself in writing it. She also saw sooner than I did what was happening. I don't personalize fic but that's what happened here. The story was a challenge for the Pevensies, but it was for me as well, and undertaken for similar reasons of love. In my case, though, it was a love of writing, the Narnia 'verse, the characters, the readers, and my recipient, Anastigmat.
