Little Squee

So, I checked my stats today at Teaspoon and am doing a little happy dance because 110 people have now favorited Wolf Moon.  Up until this story the most I got was 62 for A Place in Time, which I thought was really cool considering I wrote it pretty early on and didn't have much of a following at that point.  But this...110...that just makes me go squee.  I just passed my sixth month anniversary of writing fanfic on the 18th, so you can imagine how overjoyed this makes me.

And to think I fought the Wolf Moon plot bunny for a week or so before giving in and writing it down and starting the story.  Of course, the only reason I fought it so hard was because even then I saw the scope and size of it, though it was a lot more nebulous.  But now with an additional 11 stories in the series planned, well, epic almost feels like an understatement.  A very scary understatement.  But I'm still going to do it.  I do so love a challenge when it comes to writing.

It's also now surpassed my most reviewed story as well, which was You Reap What You Sow at 389.  Four more reviews to go and it'll have hit 400.  Wow, I'm floored.  Makes me wonder what it might have been if I hadn't brought so many of my reviewers over here so they didn't have to wait on Teaspoon mods to put a chapter up.  (Over 12 hours yesterday, don't know how much longer as I went to sleep but it was up at 7:45 this morning). 

Oh, I know it's all so silly to be happy over these goofy things, but you know what?  I still am.  It makes me go Squeeeeee!

Thank you. And you've been a fantastic reviewer right from the start. I don't think I ever would have finished Just Another Shop Girl without your support.

I do love my characters so I'm happy that joy comes through in my writing. And you're welcome.

I loved Just Another Shop Girl! I still think fondly of the Tirawls! Wildly memorable! (The drayguins reminded me of them too. And when the TARDIS spoke of them as her cousins recently it was very, very sweet.)
As you often do, you made my day! :)

See, I loved it, too, but I think Teaspoon was very heavily Ten loaded at the time. Now with so many Nine fans around it might have done better. It is one I'm intending to post here where people obviously like Nine (understatement). And I loved the Tirawls. Yes, I thought of them when I created the drayguins, too. Though much less fierce and way more loveable, I think.

Oh, hmmm...I wonder if I can bring them into one of these stories? I'll have to think on it. They've reoccurred in Time Eternal series and Jack's Path series so it's not out of the question to bring them in to this series. Even though those two are connected and this series is seperate.

And you always make my day, too with your terrific reviews. *smiles*
