Now that all my bidders and second bidders have donated, I can say how completely floored and wowed I am by the sga fandom? There were amazing creators putting themselves out there and amazing bidders donating to important causes. It feels so awesome to be part of doing good in 2025. Between my two offers, my bidders donated a total of $180! I can only imagine what the entire fandom managed as a whole. Maybe there's a way to compile that all together and find out?

Thank you all for your wonderful kind support of these important charities. I can't wait to get started on creating and seeing what I get for the auctions I won. Together we really can all make a difference!

One good thing about coming into the McShep fandom hella late is all the quality fanfic, just out waiting to be read like a bunch of juicy, ripe, smut-filled cherries. Like, I don’t think I’ll ever run out of things to read? Just when I think I’ve done all the real fandom classics I find another ten 20k fics I must read and its, idk I feel like a kid in a goddamn candy store.

Plus there’s always new fic being written, like daily?!? The last fandom I was really in was so tiny I’m just not used to having so much choice in my reading. There’s a fic for every kink! Got a weird trope? There’s a fic for it! Want an au? We’ve got all of 'em!

The only negative is I never actually write my (10k! It’s 10k now like wtf) McShep fic because it’s so much more fun to read the amazing things that already exist. It’s taken me a year. A YEAR. I gotta though; I gotta give back to this incredible fandom and keep the shelves stocked with new McShep for the next 10 years.

Me when starting SGA: Ugh, Sheppard is such a boring Mary Sue.
