I'm late, I know

[estepheia]

I know it's time for my list of May-posts and recs but I'm feeling kinda meh today. It's also time for the promised reposting of the Friendship Ficathon Masterlist - at least of the stories that were posted late, but in spite of the fact that several people promised to post their stories within the extended deadline, it doesn't look like there's a flood of new stories. Only one author has recently posted a story for this ficathon (ETA: actually, that's not true, I overlooked settai's post. I'm adding the link now):

kurukami wrote for soundingsea: Cavalry (Gwen & Faith)

Thank you, wisdomeagle for writing an additional story! *Hug* Lots of people didn't even manage one.
I'm a little lackluster right now, but I'll post all the outstanding assignments either tomorrow or on Friday. Maybe there are a few writers out there who are in need of inspiration...

flurblewig wrote an unofficial backup for me. :)

Actually, I got yours written. Although admittedly it's waaaaaaaaay late, but nonetheless I hope that you like it. It's up on my LJ here:

I emailed estepheia about it this morning; maybe the email hasn't gone through yet. *shrug*

[estepheia.livejournal.com]

Can you give me the link? I think I ought to list it with the master list. :-)

Thanks. The link will appear on my final master list, which I'll post in a couple of days. :-)

erm... willshenilshe Was writing for me... is there a chance that she doesn't know? She has changed journals recently...

*pouts* *sigh*

Willa told me she would not post it in her own LJ since she got told off by her publishing company - she is sort of moving away from fanfic. We decided she'd email me the story and I'd post it in my LJ - and then... nothing.

I sent her a reminder email but received no reply. I will email her again...
Today I will send out one last batch of emails.
And if that does not help I will hand your assignment over to someone else.
I fully expected Willa to write this, she's fast, she could have written it in a heartbeat... Oh well.

I'm sorry you had to wait for such a long time. If necessary I shall write it myself.

If you need a backup that involves Xander, Oz, Giles, Gunn or Fred, I'd be happy to pitch in.

[estepheia.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much for your offer, Glossing! That's very generous of you.
I really would like to make sure that everybody who signed up gets a story.

People had an extension of a full month, I think now it's time I organized replacement writers. :-)

[gloss]

No problem; I'm always ready to do a backup, because nothing's worse than doing a ficathon and not getting *something*, you know?

Just let me know and I'll whomp something up.

[estepheia.livejournal.com]

I posted a list of the stories that apparently aren't being written...
Two of the requests involve Fred... Maybe you'll bite. :-)
Thank you for your offer.

[kurukami.livejournal.com]

Hey! Mine's up too! :)

http://www.livejournal.com/users/kurukami/40387.html

I emailed you about it this morning. Did the email not come through?

[estepheia.livejournal.com]

Hey yay!
thank you for finishing yours.
and no, I haven't received an email from you.
Oh well, maybe AOL is being a bitch.

Cheers.

Yes! Big thanks to wisdomeagle. Thanks for the pointer to her journal.

Now that I'm out of school, I have time to write again. I'll be glad to write another one to make up for mine being late.

[estepheia.livejournal.com]

Thank you for your offer. I shall invest my morning which I'd set away for fanfic writing *sob* into organizing this. :-)

[estepheia.livejournal.com]

Hiya, I posted a list of story requests, putting them up for adoption. :-)
Thank you for your offer.
See if one of them tickles your fancy. :-)

Tadah!
