ah, collaborative projects

[podmod.livejournal.com]

have we ever mentioned, hereabouts, how much podmod loves collaborative projects? hell, podmod herself is a collaborative entity, so you may have guessed. (fun fact - this lj entry is being written collaboratively, even.)

challenges like this one aren't necessarily collaborative, but i think the best ones wind up that way. the amplificathon totally wound up that way. everyone involved was feeding and fostering the activities of everyone else involved. cheering each other on, bringing other people in, helping each other with technical issues and other encouragement. and i'm not just talking about the people who recorded fic, here (inclusiveness is also something the borg podmod values) - but wow, a lot of them spent a crazy amount of time learning new software, contacting authors, finding space in their lives to read aloud, editing files, and learning to love their own voices. and they did that for all of us participating in the challenge, and all of us here in the comm, and for everyone in fandom.

so this is a thank you to all of the readers. you guys are completely made of awesome, and we are all of us so happy that each of you decided to participate. thank you! congratulations on your success!

seriously. thank you!

Additional, special thanks go to the people who contributed: anatsuno, iamsab, kinseyx, krisd81 and leviticus_lied. Surprise contributions were stolen without their consent from aphelant & general_jinjur: the person editing this file interspersed tidbits carved out from their collaborative project, Loser (hot like burning), which you can find in the archive, of course.
