If we haven't linked to your post, it's because there wasn't enough information in the header for us to spot it or make a link. Particularly for fanfiction, we need a title and pairing at least. Anything else is a bonus – spoilers and ratings especially. Please leave a comment if you think we should have linked to something, and we'll add it or pick it up for the next newsletter.

Hey,

Was there a reason you didn't link to the post I made with Hotch caps and video?

[beatriceeagle.livejournal.com]

I probably just missed it. Link?

[aoibhe.livejournal.com]

My confusion stemmed from the fact I noticed you had read it (I like to keep an eye on my bandwidth, and will check my logs every so often).

Also, you forgot the birthdays. :)

[beatriceeagle.livejournal.com]

Did I? Then I have no clue what happened.

Oh god, birthdays. I really was not at the top of my game this weekend, was I?

*fixes everything*

*apologizes like mad*

[aoibhe.livejournal.com]

The holiday week excuses a lot.

Thanks for fixing it. :)

But sadly, your post appears to be locked so us ordinary peeps can't view it. *sobs*

[aoibhe.livejournal.com]

Ack, sorry, I meant to unlock that again. Gimme a second and you'll be able to see it.

Thanks for reminding me! ♥

[wildcard-sej.livejournal.com]

That's better - thanks! *off to enjoy the Hotchness...!* :D

I don't know if it makes sense to add the german Criminal Minds Community cm_de to the newsletter but it would be nice if you can add the links to two of our masterlists (I finally had time to do during holidays) in your next post. Here (http://community.livejournal.com/cm_de/23603.html#cutid1) is the masterlist to our advents calendar we had in december with fics, icons and wallpapers. The other one is the short masterlist for our Kissathon (http://community.livejournal.com/cm_de/24316.html?#cutid1) we had in 2008.

Thanks.
