Work Text:
For No Happy Ending Fest's second round, we received a total of 174 prompts and 108 claims. In the end, we were blessed with 27 fanfictions from 26 authors.
We would like to give special mention to the following authors: saemriel for creating 2 stories, niruesie for the longest fic, kumo_is_kumo for submitting as early as September, and thecatbiscuit and DreAMYzing for the last minute claim.
To our writers who managed to finish their fic despite the challenges, a huge thank you to all of you! Pressure comes with writing angst so we are so proud of you for overcoming the fear and anxiety.
Of course we won't forget to mention our readers who braved reading angst. I'm sure the authors are "laughing in evil" at your comments and tweets.
We hope everyone sees NHE as a loving community wherein we appreciate the beauty of the reality of life: that we can't always get want we want.
This is the end of NHE's second round. Hopefully everyone would still want us to come back for another. Hehe.
Sorry for the long introduction, NOW HERE ARE #NHE2017's AUTHORS:
