Huh?

I just found out that one of my stories, Mistaken Identities, is tied for a Screwz award; I hadn't even looked. I'd assumed that the awards were for slash only and even if they weren't, who'd nominate me anyway? I'm stunned. I feel like a proper fanfic writer now.

It's bloody brilliant and should get several awards:). It really is a remarkable feat to make the reader recognise all the characters even if they've swapped bodies:).

[blush] Thanks!

It's a great story! I'm delighted to hear it's getting recognition!

I guess it must be eligible because it appeared in a mixed zine or something...

So the awards are just for slash? This puzzles me even more, though I suppose Servalan reads slash into Blake's concern for himself because she thinks he's Avon. [shrug] The only other implication, and a tenuous one, was Vila/Jenna.

Well, I thought it was for slash/adult stuff, but maybe I'm wrong.

Well done! I don't really think it is slash though, but heh, an award is an award

Yeah, I'm totally puzzled!

:) I think the awards are for slash only, but you definitely deserve to be up for it anyway. It's a great story, one of my favourite gen fics ever, and you are so a proper fanfic writer:)

It's a lovely story. I laughed out loud reading it, and that doesn't happen much.

If you're interested, I've got other stories in the 'humour' section on my site's fiction page (http://www.farsight.net.nz/fiction/index.htm), and then there's the 'short and silly' section.

Yes, I've been digging around there a bit; I don't want to read them all at once because then they'll be done! Enjoyed the roster of crew chores a lot. :)

There's a meal roster too. :-)
