The bau_inbox team is back from the Christmas break (hence today's uber-long edition!) We wish you all a Happy New Year!


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. However, the newsletters will not be edited to include any changes to your post that happen more than a week after we've posted the newsletter.

Birthdays

A happy birthday to del_writes (today)! ♥ Don't forget to comment here if you would like us to add you to the birthday list.

Wow, we fans sure had a busy time at the end of the year.

I had to check twice but I see one story I did write and am really excited about, Just Breathe (http://community.livejournal.com/lairofthemuses/32711.html) didnt make the list for het fics.

Thanks : )

[benitle.livejournal.com]

We sure did! I love it when fandom is productive.

Ah, sorry I missed that one. I wasn't quite sure whether it was Hotch-Strauss as in Hotch/Strauss (het) or Hotch & Strauss (gen) - since all your other het fics had the pairing indicated with a /.

I'm including it as Hotch/Strauss under the het section now. Please let me know if this is incorrect.

[mcgarrygirl78.livejournal.com]

Unfortunately for poor Hotch, that's pretty much right ; )

Thank you.

[benitle.livejournal.com]

Haha, oh God! Because the poor thing hasn't been suffering enough lately, right? *g*

[a_blackpanther]

You know the fandom is small when who_daily is this long on slow days.

This isn't complaining, just pointing out. Also, thank you for the great job you do. I'm sure it's time taking to do this every day.

[benitle.livejournal.com]

Oh definitely! I also code at spnnewsletter and this is a normal-sized edition for Supernatural. It just felt a lot longer than what CM fans usually get. ;-) Which I kinda like though.

And thank you! It's great to know people appreciate this community!

[nebula99.livejournal.com]

Wow - that was a huge inbox - well done for all your hard work!

[benitle.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Fandom sure was productive over the Christmas break.

[aoibhe.livejournal.com]

Again, you rock. ::g:: THIS? RIGHT HERE? Is (part) of why I never volunteered for the SPN newsletter. ;)


Thank you so much for doing this. ♥

[benitle.livejournal.com]

No problem! ♥ I enjoy doing this, so it's really no issue at all.

And as I said, we get about this size daily for SPN. My fingers are all used to it. *g*

[aoibhe.livejournal.com]

One of the things I was grateful for at hogwarts_today was the ability to be selective about what fic we posted with each issue; that helped immensely with the issue size. :P

[benitle.livejournal.com]

Huh, how come you got to be selective about it? Did you just pick the fics at random/whatever you felt like including that day? Or were the criteria simply stricter so that a lot of fic fell through anyway?
