We are not interested in hyping our fics.  You will notice
that neither Nick nor I were in the top three - if we were
"rigging" the polls and interested in "hyping" our fics,
obviously we would have placed our fics in the top three.

Well, you *did* say something on your page about
'ego-gratification'...

True, but that was only to explain why we weren't excluding our own fics

>from consideration.  In fact, I had to talk Nick into allowing his fics to

be voted for on our poll.

It wasn't criticism. :)  If I were making a poll for fanfiction, hell, I'd
be the first to admit to thinking, "Wouldn't it be cool if I won...?" ;)

but yes, I agree, there's nothing to suggest that these
polls were rigged.

Heh, thanks.  The accusation is just plain silly, as Tybalt said.

Or maybe they were, and you're really Krista Perry. ;)

Say, Richard, when's your next tear-jerking award-winning
undoubtedly much-cheered story coming out? ;)

Well, who knows?  I *will* say that I'm working on a Sailor Moon fic as
part of a collaborative effort.  

I'm going to have to find out some more about that series one of these
days.  It seems like so much of the Ranma crowd is now writing fanfics
about SM...I'd hate to miss a gem in the mess. :)

Hopefully a Ranma 1/2 story I wrote over
a year ago will be seeing the light of day soon.  And I'm currently
composing a KOR fic in my head - still trying to see if it will work out.

Haven't gotten the opportinity to see KOR, either...

I write all my stories in my head first; if I don't like them, I can ditch
them without wasting a lot of time actually typing them out.  ^_^  I did
that just recently with a Robotech fanfic; I had it half-written in my
head before realizing just how darned stupid it would be and abandoning
it.  :)

    The gentle, yet powerful, voice resounded through his mind, and he
awoke, strangely at peace.  He raised to a kneeling position as he tried to
answer the voice, but found that he could not speak.  His eyes searched the
intangible darkscape, but found nothing.  His ears strained to hear the
sound again, but found nothing, only silence.
    'Ashram.'  The voice came again through the blackness, this time
slightly firmer, but Ashram, try as he might, could not stop from thinking
that the ethereal voice was the most beautiful thing he had ever heard.
'Welcome to eternity.'
