The genderswap has a title and a rough draft? CONGRATS! I am looking forward to reading that.
Have I thanked you recently for the work you've done for The Matter of Chicago (best alt-title ever)? Because the fact you haven't run away screaming yet astounds me. Your insight is invaluable and the fic would be far, far worse without your aid. You are a clever, inspirational beta and an equally brilliant sounding board. Your little notes and suggestions are just.... wonderful. More often than not, your reaction to a scene helps me steer the rest of the fic-- I write in response to you, trying my best to get good reactions from you, and that may sound silly but, jesus fuck, it seems to be working, considering this fic is my most ambitious and also most popular project ever.
But if every one of my readers stopped commenting and following along.... okay, that would suck, but I'd keep writing anyway because you're the best audience a writer could hope for. I just wanted you to know that.
