OH MY GOD.
I won an award.
Actually I won three awards - two seconds and a first place.
The results for the
2002 West Wing Fan's Choice Awards are in and I tied for second place in both Best Romantic Pairing for Josh/Donna, and Best Dramatic Short Story and I won First Place for Best Angst-Ridden Story.
You'll have to forgive me for being excited - this is the first award I've won for fanfiction - hell I've only ever posted three pieces of fanfiction ever, and this is the only West Wing fic. So to have it win any award at all, let alone first place.
Especially when it's placed above Beginning to Blur, by Rho Sen. I mean to be even nominated for the same award as one of her stories would have been an honour. But to win...
I've also been nominated for
the Jeds, (Outstanding Angst, Outstanding Josh/Donna, Outstanding Reinvention of a Fandom Cliche) which I was quite excited about until I saw who had been nominated as well. Marguerite, Rho Sen & Jo March, Luna, Jae Gecko, Jeanine. All writers I admire and could never hope to match up to. Esp. Marguerite and Rho & Jo.
Well after the WWFCA's I'm hoping I might get into the final five. That would be very, very cool.
In case your wondering the story that won the WWFCA's and has been nominated for the Jeds can be found here -
