Characters Behind the Conference Room Door -- Jaina/Jag Index v2.0 -- Winter 2010 Updates!

Evil! Just wrong.

 

Sara, didn't your mother teach you to be kind to your elders?! That would be me.

Anyway, I'll look back for the update but quick question for ya. Was there ever a winner for that DN Jag challenge? Is that going to be listed as well Saturday?

 

Yes, Lola, my mother taught me that. But she also taught me that a little mischief is also quite fun.

And just to get you excited for Saturday, all but one of these will be featured in the November newsletter. Can you guess which one is the odd one out?

-Slogan vote results
-5 lovely fanart pieces
-October challenge results
-A Millenium Falcon replica signed by Han Solo and filled with Dark Nest assassins
-An author interview with yours truly
-List of recent J/J stories

 

Yes, it's in there.

And I know what the slogan is

 

Nat... you are very mean! You too BF!


making us wait like that.... a whole 3 days (four depending on what time the newsletter is up....)

 

Yup

I like to get on the computer in the mornings on Saturday, so I should be up by . . . 10-ish board time, maybe.

 

Belated Dance o' Joy for the Index breaking 100 posts!

 

Gee whiz! I wonder which one will not be in the Newsletter?

LOL!!

I think you guys are doing a great job with this thread!

oldj

 

Thanks oldj! [face-grin] I wonder how you know which one isn't going to be in the newsletter...

 

Oh gee, I wonder which on isn't included.

 

I want a Millenium Falcon replica! And cute little Gorog? How cool would that visual aide be?

 

Z, if you draw one for us, I'll put it in the update as a joke

 

The trick is...can she draw a Millenium Falcon with gorogs pouring out of it?

 

It'll be hard . . . which is why I'm dead serious about putting it up if she can.

 

I'll even color it for you Z if you draw it

 

Are you kidding?! Perhaps a different update but I am going to be busy throwing a very important birthday party for a very grown up 5 year old this weekend and am getting all packed to go to Grandma's to do it! Sorry, ladies.

 

Well... I guess that's a good enough excuse for no drawing

 

Welcome to the Jaina/Jag Index?s November Newsletter! For lack of a better idea, this month?s color scheme is American Thanksgiving, which is this month.

"I've Moved On" won the October Challenge? Holy Corellia. I thought it was way too strange...

Well, thank you to all persons responsible for the judging. I am grateful and humbled.

Maybe I should write "dark" more often... NAH!



Love the slogan! It deserved to win - I mean, a lot of important moments seem to happen for J/J behind closed doors!



Great interview, BF! Music inspires you, too, huh?

You may see yourself as fairly "new" to writing fanfic, but I think you've found your calling.



Almost forgot - more great fan art!!



The new stories in the index this month are just terrific. I urge everyone to read them all, if you haven't already!

oldj
