The Cybertronian

Fiction Edition
31 August-5 September, 2008

Editor's Note

I have had the week from hell. No, work was fine, kids are fine, hubby is fine, just too much to do and not enough time to get it all done. This said, I'm certain I've messed up names/links/missed stuff. Please help. If you notice anything, leave me a comment so I can fix it.
And honestly, the next week I do this, if you don't have a proper header I'm not putting your story in the newsletter. Figuring this stuff out is taking too long. Those of you that use headers *kiss feet* I worship you…

I highly recommend adding meicailya's "Conceptions of the Self" story to this list. It's in her journal. More people need to be reading this thing.

[mmouse15.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much, I've put it under Fic Recs. I really appreciate these kinds of recommendations.

BTW, icon ♥ I wish it were that easy!

[sbx.livejournal.com]

Small correction on the information for my fic Love Will Kill. It's a movieverse fic, not G1.

[mmouse15.livejournal.com]

Thank you, it's fixed. I knew that...but somehow, when my dearest and children shut my computer down on Thursday, they lost the newsletter and I had to reconstruct everything on Friday. And obviously, I did it too fast. Thanks so much for your help with this!

[lilac-nocturne.livejournal.com]

Same as sbx with my 'File recovery', tis movie-verse, not G1. Probably my fault for not saying so in the header, thinga-ma-bobber...I'm terrible at making header-thingies...

[mmouse15.livejournal.com]

Fixed and apologies. I've been reading it, I certainly should have known it was movie-verse, but...brain was stoopid last night. Thanks for your help!

[burnedtoasty.livejournal.com]

I sees my name? :D Oh, wow, thanks for putting my stuff up there too! Nifty stuff.

[Just as a li'l side note, I bumped 'War Games' up to Mature for violence. :P]

-scampers off-

[mmouse15.livejournal.com]

I hope so! You write, we link, win/win! I really love putting this together so other folks can read these fabulous stories.

War Games has been bumped up. Thanks for telling me!

*quit hiding!*
