FKFicFest '24 nearing finish line

[brightknightie]

fkficfest continues revealing. After today's, we have three stories left. Friday will have two shorter stories, Saturday a long story, and Sunday will have the round-up/index and "closing ceremonies" post.

I've posted promos to all the relevant DW communities that I know of, and to ForKni-L after every fourth story. A person on the email list replied there to say, "Thank you all." (I do encourage people there to share comments and kudos on the stories; I'm not sure that registers.) Please consider promoting the fest as appropriate on whatever platforms you like.

The story I wrote, myself, posted a week ago today. It's Nick-centric, historical, and pro-virtue; you know me. You'll find a wide variety of stories in the rest of the fest, so hopefully approaches to appeal to many assorted tastes. It's okay that not every story is for every reader, of course!

(I still don't know what to make of the unusually high percentage of multiple stories by single authors this year. Of the remaining three stories, two more are coming. Was it the calendar? The prompts? Coincidence?)

I hope people have had fun, both writing and reading.

Thank you for the insights! I appreciate it.

From a macro level, for fest planning, it sounds like your happy experience falls under "coincidence," that is, as not anything directly replicable to help scale enthusiasm for the community at large. So I will try to stop worrying that there's something I should do here. :-)
