Mir and I have decided we need to start a Kate Fangirls Association. Or something.

WE LOVE YOU, DARLING! :D *squishes* (we are still staring at the pretty, oh yes)

[katekat]

lol! ok, i think i've finally clouded your minds with my powers then! WOOT!

seriously though, thanks darling. I love love love that you love all these so much! And ADORE YOU BOTH TO PIECES! so there! ;)

I've said it several times already today, but Kate, you are absolutely fantastic - a real treasure. This from the woman who's had that banner open in a tab all day. *g*

[katekat]

heeee! if it makes you feel any better i keep going back and looking at it too. i can't believe it actually came out close to what i wanted... i may actually be doing this thing right yet.

anyway, darling, as i told your lovely other half, it's such fun to do these things for you both because i adore you to pieces and it makes me happy to see you happy! so ... YAY! hee.

[that_mireille]

We are always extremely appreciative of it, too. You make such beautiful banners and layouts! *hugs you*

[malnpudl.livejournal.com]

Oh, wow! Those are all stunning!

And I'm still all happydancey because one of them is mine! *glee*

[katekat]

grin! i'm terribly happy you're part of that group too darling! :D *HUGS*

Wow, those are gorgeous. I've read most of the fics and they just go so well with the stories. Very nice!

I friended you, by the way. I hope you don't mind.

[katekat]

*waves* hi there! thank you so much for the lovely compliment - that's exactly what I was going for since these are oft read and much adored fics ... so i'm really glad that the love shines through.

and friending you back - it seems we have lots in common as someday someday i also want to do comp lit! and your a ncal person, yes? i did my undergrad at Santa Cruz

[sahiya.livejournal.com]

That's where I did my undergrad! When did you graduate? I'm class of '05, Porter College (which used to be College Five, if you're further back than that). What was your major?

[katekat]

heee!! that's soo cool! i'm class of 97 (shudder) and was a Kresge kid. Oh, and Modern Lit (basically lots of postmodern classes and a couple of british lit classes with a prof who i know isn't there any more)

what was yours?

[sahiya.livejournal.com]

Modern Lit! With a German emphasis, actually, and Women's Studies, which means I spent more than my fair share of time held captive in Kresge Town Hall (worst. lecture hall. ever.). Is Michael Warren the prof you're talking about? They drag him back to teach the Intro to Shakespeare class every once in awhile because he was so incredibly popular.

[katekat]

German writers? COOL! and yeah, oh, that Kresge Town Hall was AWFUL. you poor lady for having to put up with it. And no, the prof I was talking bout was a guy named Troy Boone - he's out in the midwest somewhere now, but I took a bunch of brit-lit stuff from him that was just wonderful. Did you ever take anything from Earl Jackson? He was absolutely crazy, but ... i kinda ended up in the program i'm in because of hiim.

[sahiya.livejournal.com]

I never did take anything with Jackson, unfortunately. I heard good things about him.

Oh, sweetie, those are all gorgeous! I especially like the one for 'Conspiracy Theory' and EB!! Beautiful work, darlin'!!

[katekat]

Thank you sweet girl! I was SUPER pleased with how the Consp.Theory one came out and the EB/Faith one just sorta flew together. :D

[khaoschilde.livejournal.com]

Wow... these are lovely. Great job.

[katekat]

thank you lady! they were great fun to do, especially since i'm so fond of the fics they get to herald.
