September Support Stacie Author Auction
The September Support Stacie Author Auction will take place September 11-14, 2009.
It’s a multi-fandom auction, so if you have friends that write for GG or any other fandom, encourage them to sign up! Participating in the auction as an author, a bidder, or even a snarky spectator is great fun, and all proceeds help to offset medical expenses that our friend truelovepooh has incurred in her on-going battle against breast and ovarian cancer.
If you are an author and you would like to participate in the auction, please go to Support Stacie for the sign up form. The deadline for signing up as an author is September 4th. Information for bidders can also be found at that site. Hope to see you there!

Fanfic fundraiser for a great cause
A Fanfic-On-Demand fundraiser is in the works for friends of Stacie. The gist of the project is that authors in any fandom are invited to write a short fic on demand. The highest bidder gets to deliver the fic challenge to the author they’ve “won,” along with the story’s pairing, the rating, and other pertinent details (within reason and within the author’s stated fandom and limitations - i.e., some authors prefer not to write smut). The author will be given up to 30 days to finish the fic, beginning with the day that payment is received. Details are on supportstacie.net If you are interested in being one of the authors, please check out the site and submit the author form! This will be a fun project designed to challenge the author and entertain their fans while raising money for a great cause.

Heads up about validation
This is just to let everyone know that I'm going to be away from internet for a few days, so there won't be any validation at BWR while I'm gone. I'm leaving Monday morning (8/4) and I'll be back Thursday evening (8/7). I'm sorry for the inconvenience. I'll try to get caught up as quickly as possible when I get back. Thank you in advance for your patience.

Email issues
We've been having some problems with outgoing emails from BWR showing up blank. In order to assist us in tracking down the problem, it would be really helpful if you could let us know when you receive blank emails. Just reply to any blank emails and let us know your penname and anything you can about the circumstances of the email. Thanks so much for the help!

Memorial Day Weekend
This is just a heads up that validation will be slow during Memorial Day weekend. I'm away and without internet. I might be able to check in once a day, but I can't guarantee that. Thank you for your patience.

Anonymous Reviews Disabled
I hated to do it, but I've had to disable anonymous reviews due to some weird spam issues we've been having. That means, in order to leave a review you must be signed in.
If you're not a member, creating an account is easy. Just follow the "Log In" link from the main menu, or go here.

Watch out for weirdness
Happy new season!
I got an e-mail from an author letting me know that they were getting some weird/spammy reviews. Basically, it's all gibberish with links to porn sites. If you've noticed anything weird like that in your reviews, or more importantly in your stories, please let me know by responding here or e-mailing me at admin[at]gilmore-fiction[dot]net. Be sure to include a link to your story/review.
As always, don't follow any strange links if you see them. I don't think we've been hacked, but I wanto make sure I know what's going on.
