( N.B.: Portions of this letter have been lifted from last year's letter .) Thank you for signing up to write a story for me! You're one of three people (one of whom was me) who offered to write for The ILLUMINATUS! Trilogy , one of seven people (one of whom was me) who offered to write for The NeverEnding Story film trilogy, one of seven people (one of whom was me) who offered to write...
Gakked from wisdomeagle , here ("I'm sure all of fandom has heard of this by now. Post the first lines from some of/20 of/50 of/all of your fic. Your flist writes drabbles for you.") and here ("So.

Claims Post/table Take a look at the (very long) table below. If the claim you want has 3 names next to it, it is no longer claimable. However, you can try to contact one of the users and ask (politely) if they're still working on their claim. If not, tell them to post a 'drop claim' post here and I'll gladly put your name up instead. Pairings Fred Burkle (Angel)/Kaylee Frye (Firefly...

I'm also amused by all the squishing that had to be done to fit the full title of "Twenty Facts" into the banner. Congratulations too to wisdomeagle , who won a whole bunch of awards, as is fit and right.
I am pleased to announce the results of the 2009 Kinda Gay Awards! We had such wonderful nominees, and the judges were fantastic to work with, and I've enjoyed the hell out of running this site and recognizing works and authors in a sub-genre that often get overlooked. So without further ado... 2009 Kinda Gay Awards Results Best Drabble Winner : The World, Upside Down by wisdomeagle...
