Part the First
(The Status Report)
AaAaaaAAArrrAAArrgggghhh!
*pant pant pant*
Well, hell. Apologies to all who are interested (don't know how many
that is... :), but the revised Chapter Two of my Ranma/Matrix fusion _The
Reality War_, AND the new Chapter Three of same, are both going to be
delayed. Not indefinitely by any means, but for at least a week, probably.
This morning, during my break, I popped in my Zipdisk and went to work
on the aforementioned chapters... except, for some reason, my computer
couldn't find them. Odd. Ok, so I tried to go to them manually... except,
for some reason, they're not there...
Ohboy.
After twenty minutes of futzing, it became apparent that despite my best
attempts, my disk was not going to yield up my earlier labors. So, I have
to re-write Chapter Three, AND re-write the additions/revisions I'd made to
Chapter Two.
I think I'm gonna cry. *sniff* I really liked the additions to Chapter
Two, too...
Part the Second
(The WWW Announcement)
Whee! Sofaspud's Couch has added another administrator to the team.
This'll let us post fanfics faster than before, which is a Good Thing by
anybody's definition. :)
Also, mucho fics have been added since my last post about the site to
this list, and since a few of them, at least, are written by FFML authors, I
figured I'd let you folks know about them. So, here's the most recent
FFML-related fics that are being archived on the Couch.
A Life Once Lived (http://www.sofaspud.org/couch/Ranma/ALOL/)
- a Ranma/Spawn fusion by Kyle Emmerson (aka TydRipper).

Concept.) by Brian Payne and Jed Bidwell.

Wilson.
If I'm forgetting anybody, it's probably because I don't know that
you're an FFML author, and I'm limiting these notices to fics by authors
from the list. Let me know that you're on the list and I'll include you in
these notices from now on (which really isn't saying much, since I only do
one of these every few months. :)
And, as always, if you want your fic hosted, send it (following the
guidelines set down at http://www.sofaspud.org/couch/submitguide.shtml) to
submissions@sofaspud.org and we'll get it up!
(* this link may change soon... apparently, I misunderstood how the story
was supposed to be setup originally, and I may have to revise the structure
a bit. We'll see...)
