    Thank you for your nomination, but my first story To Fight the Coming Darkness was first listed in December of 05. I fall outside the criteria for this award.

    I was going to nominate Jack, but someone already nominated him.

    Its very good. Janus Larch is a cool but weird character. Good updates that are somewhat frequent. I REALLY look forward to it.

    P.S. I don't know why the links aren't working.

    Err... I just skimmed these nominations and I don't think too many people are reading the criteria. Dark Lord Gullible, Chuck, IP, MrINBN all nominated fics that aren't qualified by this category's stated criteria.

    This is for only a new author's FIRST fic. Cubdom, JackofDiamonds, BlueMagikMarker, and Yarrgh! are all new authors whose nominated first fics were first published between 1-1-06 and 12-31-06. The others have earlier one-shots or other fics published before these.

    I'm just going off the links and checking those author's userpages. If I'm wrong, say so.

    I'm under the impression that their first fic meaning first Harry Potter fic? The author could have fics in other fandoms but still butcher the HP one..

    Sorry, haven't seen the condition that the story must be CREATED in 06, not just updated. Too bad, Erised Burning was only 2 weeks too fast (Published: 12-11-05). And this IS his first story. Meh...

    Too bad this includes all aspects of writing, instead of just HP, or else I could have run for it, Lawl.

    Thanks for nominating me MrINBN ;) Although everyone hates H/D with a passion here, it's still nice to be mentioned.

    About the previous fic on my ff.net page, is something I wrote two years ago and is more a story about me and two of my internet buddies that I never finished, it was a joke and defenitely not seriously written as fanfiction. The story that was nominated is actually my first serious attempt at a decent story.

    I don't really mind eitherway, just thought i'd mention it.
