The Fondue series was conceived as some lighthearted entertainment for ourselves and we always get a little giddy when someone thinks its a bit good.

There’s been two squee-worthy moments that have proved to me that (a) shit, I can actually write and should probably do that for a living  and (b) good fanfic never dies. The first squee-worthy moment was on ‘Defamer Australia’. Now I read Defamer every day and to find your work featured rather randomly is both humbling and entirely too weird. Oddly I’d never saved the link and on finding it again I was surprised by the nice comments. I was expecting to be torn apart! See for yourselves: http://www.defamer.com.au/2007/12/strangely_captivating_fan_fict/#more-268818

The second squee-worthy moment is that I discovered people talking about the Fondue on the GNW messageboards. I generally avoid messageboards but when I saw the ‘fanfic’ thread I thought, ‘hmm I wonder…’ and the responses blew me away! http://forums.ten.com.au/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=117242&start=0&tstart=0

So thank you, thank you, thank you for the positive feedback. Yeah I know fanfic is silly but when I’m not working and studying its a wonderful outlet and y’know there’s some perverse pleasure in having Paul McDermott kidnapped in a ridiculous manner by some idiotic felon…

…except in the latest installment of course since it’s all domestic stuff which is so much harder to write.

More soon though the cheese is only just melting
