And we're done! :D

A huge thank-you, once again, to everyone who created, everyone who commented, everyone who dropped by to have a look-see, and especially everyone who stepped in at the last minute to make sure no signer-upper was left without a gift.

A huge thank-you also to colebaltblue, without whom I could never, ever pull this off. <3

We'll put up the master list on July 1st for your perusal. Thank you for another wonderful round of Holmestice!

And thank you. It was fun!

That's the important part!

This was my first Sherlock Holmes fest of any kind, and I was consistently blown away by the amount of talent exhibited in the gifts. Thank you so much for running a tight ship and making this undertaking such an awesome one to produce work for and enjoy!

We're very happy to know you've enjoyed participating! We've always been lucky to have so many talented people willing to play.

Thank you for running this, it is, as always, excellent!

I am super curious why I got two gift fics--can you tell me or will that spoil the reveal? I was baffled but excited when I saw them!

[lavvyan.livejournal.com]

We had to assign a pinch-hitter to make sure you'd get a fic, but then your original author came through as well! That was quite marvellous.

[tartancravat.livejournal.com]

Awesome! :D :D :D

Thank you for all your hard work making this happen!

[lavvyan.livejournal.com]

Thank you for participating again!

[winter-hermit.livejournal.com]

I always have a lovely time. ^_^

Are you planning to put up a guessing thread again, prior to the reveal?

[lavvyan.livejournal.com]

I'm going to try and put together a preliminary master list this weekend and put that up (artist/author names redacted) as a starting point for the guessing game, if anyone wants to do that.

Count me in, although I only know some people's work...

[tsuki-no-hana.livejournal.com]

This was so much fun, I had a great time creating my contribution, and I absolutely loved the one done for me! I can't wait for another round, and I am so eager to see who wrote mine :D

[lavvyan.livejournal.com]

Revealing who created what is one of my favourite parts. :D

[musamihi.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much for all your work in putting this together! I'm shamefully behind in reading, but I'm looking forward to sitting down and enjoying the rest soon. :)

[lavvyan.livejournal.com]

Thank you! We aim to please. :)

[ladyofthelog.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much. I love and have always loved writing for holmestice, and I appreciate all the effort you put in - both in handling all the stresses of an exchange and assigning me the perfect match. <3

[lavvyan.livejournal.com]

Your enthusiasm is one of the reasons we keep doing this. :)

[talulahk.livejournal.com]

<3 <3 <3 Thanks so much for the staggering amount of work everyone has done. I've just read and been astonished.

Now about those John and Sherlock jumpers for Christmas... :)

I've been watching this fest from the sidelines for the last few years, first time I finally managed to catch the signups BEFORE they closed, and zomg. Blown away as always by the quality of fanwork, and definitely bookmarked most of them to (re)read in the near future. And of course, may I just say THE MODS WERE THE BEST PART. :D

Thank you for such a well-run fest, and I am totally psyched for the next one already! LOL. <33
