Editor's Note

Do you know what the greatest thing about doing this newsletter is? I read most of these fics from my f-list, and then I get to come in and compile them for the newsletter, which means I re-read them. It's like a double serving of chocolate without the calories!
We really do have some fantastic writers gifting us with their stories...
