 Losing two contestants at this point is just brutal, but unfortunately that is where we are at as the Wheel of Chaos slows down and comes to a complete stop. 

We are losing two people that I'm not only a fan of them as writers, I'm a fan of them as human beings. Which *looks around at the rest of you complete and utter scoundrels* No comment.  ;)   

Goodbye to [personal profile] hafnia  and to [personal profile] flipflop_diva  I kept waiting for either of you to burst out of the shadows as the dark horse contender of the season.  But I'll take just getting to read some great stories from both of you.

Thank you so much for coming out for this crazy thing!!!

thanks :) I do a lot of writing and do talk about occasionally on here, so if you (or anyone else reading this, tbh) wants to friend me, I'm all for it. :D (I'm trying to be better about commenting — life has been kind of nuts these last five months and, oh, well.)

Otherwise, for writing stuff, I'm on AO3 under the same username I have here (hafnia), where I do have an original novel posted (with the sequel updating weekly), but it's considerably more explicit than what I would ever write for Idol, so! (It is a romance, has a distinct plot, etc, but we definitely do not fade to black.)

I enjoyed your stories this season, as always. My favorites were the fairy market entry, and the spooky pair of stories you wrote for Ambuscade and Nail.

Thank you ♥ "A nail is driven out by another nail" is probably the one this season I had the easiest time writing!

I’m honestly surprised your first entry didn’t get more votes - I really liked it (and voted for it). Hugs!

Two very food writers! And flip-flop_diva was a former team mate from another season, so I always cheer her on. You'll both be missed. Some very strong work this season!

LOL That will teach me to type comments from my phone.

okay it is a sign of how fatigued I am in general that I went, "well yeah, I do occasionally write about recipes and stuff but I don't think I've done that for Idol this time...?"

sigh.

Awww, well, I saw this coming! I always wish I could make it farther but I’m happy getting this far. It’s been a fun season! Being a killer for a little bit was cool, and I loved the chaos we did get! Thanks for running this Gary, even with everything going on in your life.

And ngl the timing for this kind of works out. We’re taking the kids on a Disney cruise next week and I have a million things left to do, so at least now I don’t also have to figure out how to write an entry!

I really enjoyed your writing this season! But I can't imagine trying to wrangle two small children on a Disney cruise leading up to the holidays AND trying to write entries. I'm pretty sure you'd have found a way, but this probably lets up on the stress.

You’re always one of my favorites, and looking at all the work the new prompt is wanting, I’m glad I got out when I did, too!

Have a great time on your cruise!
