"If you hated the whole thing, please feel free to register your complaints with Jackie Dana." 😂 - Jackie will probably just forward those emails to you!

Thanks for spending the time to wrangle us all together and for helping choose a theme. It was a lot of work, but it worked out quite well, and everyone did a fantastic job!

Thanks for bringing us together Jordan! You created and managed the framework so smoothly. I have never done this before and sci-fi is certainly not my genre, nor the direction I was expecting either so it turned out to be a surprise and unexpectedly fun!!

Also a BIG shout out to Wil Dalton who got us started on this wild rocket ride with the fabulous start. I really loved it.

Plus the generous community that was seeded here was an unexpected bonus... And even though I avoid Discord (I get enough of Slack with work) because I would (mis)use it for all sorts of dilly-dally procrastinating, by the end I felt very connected.

Every time I see the words “post mortem” and nothing is said about coronary artery atherosclerosis and degree of patency, I get a little disappointed.

Congratulations to everyone who participated in the GSSC! I know from experience how much fun and weirdly pressure-filled it can get (especially going last). Y’all nailed the landing. 🎉🎉🎉
