Cdr. Taylor, both IC and OOC, takes on so much for the Elysium. He remains a white knight dedicated to the protection of the Federation in spite of a dark and tragic past and is, quite frankly, one of my favorite characters to read.

I messed up and nominated Cdr. Taylor for a lesser award than he deserved for the Christmas post, but then I got to thinking about all the player and character do to make it great here and decided this was the best award he could receive. A part of me wants to call this the "What A Man" award for this magnificent character who's part 007, part Magnum, part Riker, part time Santa, and all heart. If Gary Taylor were real, I would definitely consider him husband material: sweet, intelligent, fearless, and sexy. He totally deserves this!

What few people understand is that humor is not always cracking jokes a la Hawkeye Pierce but is often in lighthearted encouragement, good advice, and generally lifting the spirits of others. In this definition of humor, there's nobody more deserving than Cdr. Gary Taylor for his fatherly good cheer in "Thinking about the Future."

This award, at it's core, is about love, and love isn't always romance, seduction, and hooking up, sometimes it's the fatherly love of a man and the little blueberry who stole his heart. For that reason I'm nominating Cdr. Taylor for the Rose Award for his loving attention as Tayalas' father figure.

For the Role of Commander Gary Taylor - For the post, "A special night for the Taylor's". There is a sweetness and sincerity to this recent post which I like. On the surface it's "just" a dinner scene. But its more than that. One gets a sense that there is genuine care and concern for each other in these characters. And it doesn't come off all "Ozzie n' Harriet" of the stars either. In particular is the little nudges that Lia gives Gary to just go to the conference. Which, I am sure, that many married folk can relate to when the spouse needs a push now and again. Thank you!

For his help in making the JP "Where do we go from here?" such a joy to write. Many many times both Jeff and I get together and just write, the JP can sometimes flow so easily I wonder where it comes from. It comes from Jeff and his way of allowing me to help tell the story. I hope this small reward is thanks enough for all his help.

I feel the Post "Oh, what a feeling" deserves an award for such emotional content. The writer makes you feel and see how his family means so much to him, how much joy he gets for simply having that family.
