patk... today just one phrase: "The Victorsverse-Experience"
Written in 2007, Speranza's "Written by the Victors" caused so much superlatives that you can safely call it an "experience".
The story received 1042 comments on LJ (that includes, of course, the author's answers but still ...).
The podfic-version has a cast list of 36 players.
There was a whole "universe" created around it that includes - of course - lots of cover art, a fake amazon.uk-page that lists made-up books over books all related to the story, earth historical documents, stories written in the universe by other authors, portraits, texts, poetry, artworks and - of course - an vid to go with the story that captures the spirit of the story perfectly. I just *love* it.
If you haven't read the story and seen the "universe"-page yet, please, do so - bookmark the page and come back to it later because it's just too much to take in all at once.
And if you know it already, you might perhaps want to re-visit a little. :-)
