Volume 16, Issus #455

[mmouse15.livejournal.com]

Well, I fail at life. I have been pressed for time all this week, I have to leave for an engagement in 10 minutes, and the newsletter is not ready to go. My apologies. I'm going to leave this marker post and get it up tomorrow.

The Cybertronian

Fiction Edition
11 – 17 September, 2010

Editor's Note

Wow, this has been a busy week. I'm sorry I couldn't get this finished yesterday. I thank you all for your patience with me and my RL issues.

Anyway! We're about half way through the big prowlxjazz anniversary celebration, which has given us a lot of new stories, and the tfic_contest entries have been posted, go check them out and vote, since the poll closes Sunday at midnight CDT!

Also, flesh_and_steel have their entries for the 'medical examination' challenge posted, although the announcement came out after the newsletter marker post. However, since voting wraps up Friday, I thought I'd at least tell you about it.

As always, I plead with you – if I missed anything or messed up a link, please let me know so I can fix it. Thank you, and enjoy all the stories!
