The Cybertronian

Fiction Edition
8 – 15 August, 2009

Editor's Note

My deepest apologies to the lateness of another fic issue. First I wasn't feeling too well and took meds to get better, said meds made me sleep 28 hours a day subjectively seen; then the trouble with my landlord started again and I was a bit... absent-minded when it came to the newsletter.

Anyway, the newsletter is now finally done and I recommend you reading as much as you like. There were some great stories this week. (19 Aug. 2009)

booyah

[lady_katana4544]

Umm, I think that you may have posted another author's fic under my username. I think that "United We Stand" is either katsuko's or someone else's story. ^_^

[delilahdraken]

Yes, it was katsuko's story. Thanks for telling me.

It's now corrected.
