Master List for 2008

[smallgiftsmods.livejournal.com]

And....*drumroll*...we're there! We may see one or two extra gifts appear in the next few days, but we've finally reached the end of the 2008 exchange.

Thanks so much for participating, everyone! We've had a wonderful exchange, with 77 gifts given over the past five weeks, including six gifts of art and 71 fics, and some 2,938 comments left to date. We saw AUs, meditations on the afterlife, first kisses, last words, banter, angst...and even one or two brilliant fics set in the dreaded Missing Years after 1981. This corner of fandom is a little richer now, and thanks go to all of you for that.

Special thanks go out to our pinch-hit team, including brighty18, who helped us out in the early stages, and lazy_neutrino, midnitemaraud_r, rosivan, and velvetmouse, who stepped in to save the day over the holidays. Folks like you make exchanges like these possible, and we can't tell you how grateful are that you volunteered and wrote such wonderful fics under deadline.

A heartfelt thank you goes out to mindabbles and sambethe, who naively offered to help the harried magnetic_pole run the exchange this year and wound up doing all the work. As you know, things have been hectic at my end, and your fabulous organization, hard work, and good humor have made all the difference.

Finally, there's nothing an author or artist loves more than a little feedback. Even though the exchange may be over, leave a comment if you read a fic you like or see a wonderful piece of art; someone will appreciate it.

Thanks to everyone for a wonderful month of R/S! May 2009 be filled with art, fic, and friendship.
