Year's end and Holiday rec challenge

[dessert-first.livejournal.com]

You guys!! You guys, it is now December. Where did you go, 2008? This also marks the ending of the first year as co-co-mods for ignazwisdom, nos4a2no9 and myself. Whee!

We're so happy that justbreathe80 and brooklinegirl let us run with this wonderful comm they founded. And we're so grateful to all of you for reading, reccing, commenting and generally making it all happen. You've shared amazing stories, from the wonder and joy of that first realization of love to the rich wealth of lives shared. The characters we love have come alive: loving, fighting, growing and adapting as gifted writers set fingers to keyboards and let their imaginations roam. Here's to many more years of the funny, the sweet, the hot and the snarky, and our beloved boys and girls of Due South.

Thank you all for being awesome.

--Dess, Nos and Iggy

This week, we want holiday recs galore. Bring us those pumpkin pie, menorah, Kwanzaa, Christmas stories you love! We can't wait to read them. You have until next Monday.

Happy reccing!
