• Lunacy is a Pretty Funky Word by Verity on Merwolf's Academy of Bards (orig)
  This is what the author says about the story - I have no idea what this story is about. I'm insane and was suffering from creative constipation and after a shot of inspirational ex-lax this is what came out. It's is no where near as dark as my last fic and probably shouldn't even be posted but I'm a masochist and a feedback whore so sue me. Plus the little people kept whispering in my ear for me to post it and this was the only way to shut them up. They're some persistent little buggers I tell ya. Why are you still reading this? Go read the story already. You know you're curious. Just don't shoot me when you're finished. I'd appreciate a bottle of Evian with a splash of lime though. The bullets itch.

• From Kym on Whoosh:
  This has not been a good month timewise for me. Because of a massive time crunch, I am anticipating that October's issue will be late (this will be a first in 6 years -- and sadly I am announcing it on Whoosh's 6th anniversary -- the first issue of Whoosh went on-line Sept. 26, 1996). Hopefully not by too much time. However, I am in need of volunteers to help me get future issues out. We need coders, editors, and quick studies. If I cannot find the volunteer help I nee,d I will have to cut down on the size of the monthly journal. Also, I have had no time to update the episode guide. Again, I need volunteer editors and coders and reviewers and synopsis writers to help out with that. Rest assured it will be released, but I have no idea when at this point. Hopefully sometime before Sept. 7th.
