Totally done with Juneuary. Looks like tomorrow and Wed might get up to 71°F, but then the following week is still projected to be in the 60s. If Juneuary turns into Julymber, there's no telling what I will do.
I have issues with dishwashing gloves. I don't know if I'm just extra rough/careless with them or what, but a hole inevitably develops in one of the fingertips and then my hands start feeling damp as water gets through, and then I have to throw away the glove and use a new one. This is a cycle that repeats itself far too often -- maybe every few weeks to a month? It's led me to finally try to find some heavy-duty gloves online, and I think I've found some, but I won't know until they arrive and I can start using them. In the meanwhile, if any of you have suggestions for long-lasting dishwashing gloves (I refuse to do the dishes without gloves), let me know!
The reveal/masterlist/awards have been announced for the
dgficexchange, so now I can openly thank all the people I need to thank. I've been totally busting to do it!
THANK YOU to:
-
jade_okelani for taking the time to beta my story even though her life is crazy right now.
-
pitch_a_tale, who was assigned my prompt and drew this awesome D/G art -- it ended up winning a bunch of the art awards, deservedly so.
-
javastix, who provided me with a great prompt that I could be really creative with!
- The fic exchange mods,
mynuet and
seegrim, who did a wonderful job running the big show.
- ALL of the wonderful people who voted for my story during the awards period. I'm totally flattered about every vote the story received, as the competition was really fierce with so many great stories posted. Congrats to all of the winners!!
-
liriehalliwell, who created the beautiful award banners. Here's mine:

- All the exchange participants -- mods, writers, artists, betas, and READERS, all without whom this would not nearly be as fun.
I'll get around to posting it to the D/G Archive soon, but until then, you can read "Isle at Storm's End" at the exchange community. Part 1 is here and part 2 is here.
