The St. Eric competition

Sookie Stackhouse, the demon Eric must suffer through. We've all read it, right? Eric, the perfect man/vampire. He's a natural Saint. I know when I think of Heaven, I think "Vampire" "Viking" "Businessman" "Politician" as natural inhabitants. When they come together, it can only spell eternal light and goodness...wait...that makes sense, right?

Before "Dead Reckoning" or any other release, it might be better to hear about what's not so good about Eric, and why, for a change, Sookie is right, lest we all forget that Sookie is not a submissive heap in the face of Eric Northman.

This is an ANONYMOUS contest. Unlike other anonymous contests, I am willing to take your hate mail for the rest of time. All fics will stay on the profile, and if at the end, you don't want to claim it, you never have to own up to it. If you want to dip your toe for the first time, but fear the judgement, no one will ever have to know. If you want to condemn ideas you've read, and don't feel like being spammed with hate messages, you can leave that to me. All the fic, none of the risk. In the event of reportage, fics will be posted elsewhere, so what you have to say will always stay said. The only person who will know who wrote the fic - forever if you so choose - is me, your host, peppermintyrose. I promise, I will tell no one.

So who won?

First place winner: The Fluids of Time. Banner

Second place winner: Nobody's Fool. Banner

I would like to extend out sincere thanks to all of you who reviewed. I really appreciated it.

There will be NO PUBLIC VOTE. If you want to support a fic, then review it and tell the author. I forced my judges to wrestle it out - and let me tell you, there was nakedness, oil and one judge ended up in a cage. It was blood sport. Four stubborn women in a virtual room = messy.

Where can I see what it was about?

We're on Twitter! Who wouldn't follow @Saint_Eric anywhere he should lead?

Now we have a Tumblr, which has pictures and quotes to inspire you.
