MTYG!

[pensnest]

Right! MTYG authors have now been revealed, so I can admit to writing 'Collaboration' for JM. A bit of a challenge, and it gave me quite a few worried moments as I flailed around wondering when exactly to set it, but after a certain amount of struggling (trying to figure out the lyrics to the AJ/JC collaboration 'Love Crazy' was Not Easy, and I couldn't very well ask the Queen of Letterboys...) I ended up being rather pleased with it.

The reveal brings the usual collection of, Aha, I thought so! and Of course, why didn't I realise and Well I never! reactions. Incidentally, I'm impressed by the quality of the guessing on the official MTYG guess-the-author post! And next year, if I remember, I shall use a completely different system for defining breaks in the story. Hah!

I can also thank the wonderful chalcopyrite for writing my fabulous story, 'Prove Them Wrong'.

I'll be replying to feedback received, but not (probably) tomorrow, as tomorrow I restore the brats to university and, possibly, prowl around Norwich for a while.

Do you have a link for MTYG? I was out of town during the rollout, and I haven't read anything. :(

I don't know if I would have guessed your story by myself, but I obviously saw JM's post, and then just nodded along as I read the story. I think it was 'brandish' and some other word you used that made me pretty sure. :)

It's interesting what 'gives us away'. I'm usually very bad at identifying authors... perhaps I don't read carefully enough! But I shall certainly adjust my asterisks next time!

I was really surprised that I got so many right this year because usually I suck. But even then, it's usually no the story itself but something external, like Ninjetti's way of writing nsync. :)
