Truthsome Ficathon II - Voting Results [03 Mar 2007|10:35am]

carmen_sandiego
Thank you to the people who cast votes for the ficathon, huge thanks to everyone who submitted fic, and even bigger thanks to everyone who read and posted feedback on the stories. There are more than two dozen fics here, and many first-timers came out to play which is absolutely wonderful. If you've still not posted a fic, I really encourage you to do so at a later time - all of us enjoy reading and this community will still be here, as is [info]mal_inara, so don't forget about your fellow 'shippers ;)

Without further ado, here are the banners. More are under the cut tag. The banners were made by [info]snowdrifted, upon whom I heap praise and cookies and satin kimonos and strawberries and all else she desires.

For those who finished:

Don't forget that the master list for the ficathon is |here|, for future reading needs.
See y'all in the world.

Let the voting begin! [21 Feb 2007|03:25pm]

Greetings, Truthsome Ficcers! The lovely [info]carmen_sandiego has recruited me to tally the voting for the ficathon awards. So, without further ado, here are the two categories in which you'll be casting your votes: Best Overall Fic and Best Use of the Prompt (winter and/or night).

Everyone can vote for up to three fics in each category, but you may NOT vote for the same fic more than once, i.e., you can't vote for the same things in both categories. In order to place your vote, simply comment to this entry. I've got comments screened so no one but me will be able to see how anyone else votes.

Voting will remain open from now through midnight (eastern time) next Tuesday night, February 27th. The master list of fics can be found here. Please take some time to read all the wonderful fics and vote for your favorites. There are banners at stake, people!

Below is a ballot for you to cut and paste into your comments. (NOTE: Order doesn't matter. You're placing three equal votes in each category, not voting for first, second or third place, so the fic you choose as number one will be given no more preference than number three.)

Best Overall Fic

Best Use of the Prompt

Truthsome Ficathon Redux - Master List [20 Feb 2007|09:57am]

carmen_sandiego
All right folks, the final deadline has passed! Here is the master list of all fics for this second Truthsome Ficathon round. The fics are listed in the order they were posted - fics in the first week are at the top of the list, fics just recently posted are at the bottom. If I have missed something, please comment below.

For the upcoming voting I am enlisting the help of [info]hannasus, another fic writer in Firefly 'verse and other fandoms; She has not participated in this current ficathon and is happy to assist in tallying votes. You'll find information coming about that in the next few days. In the mean time: Anyone need anything to read? ;)

THANK YOU to everyone who has posted, participated, and given feedback. Your fellow writers thank you.

Through Time and Space [20 Feb 2007|04:46am]

audaciously
Title: Through Time and Space
Rating: PG-13
Summary: Four different meetings Mal and Inara might have had and one they did. A bit AU.
Word Count: 4,532
Spoilers: The movie.
A/N: This is a bit unconventional for a Firefly fic and it wasn't the original story I was going to post, which is probably the reason why I'm two weeks late. I spent a lot of time researching for this story and the only main problems I came across was with some of the languages I used (hold your mouse over the phrase to see its meaning). I'm only knowledgeable in a little bit of Latin, Spanish, and Italian, so, if anyone notices anything incorrect (about anything, not just the languages), please feel free to correct me! Also, please don't let all the different languages scare you! :)

Truthsome Ficathon [14 Feb 2007|07:44am]

Attention all ficcers! If you your week has passed but you have not posted yet, please don't have guilt. Have fic instead! Keep writing and posting. I am officially announcing this week, Week 6: Amnesty Week, February 12-19 (Until MONDAY) as one last gasp for anyone who has not posted to still get their fic in. Because hey, I'm the mod and so I figure I can be like that, on a whim. Participant banners will go out to those who finished on time - but voting will be eligible for ALL who submit.

For ALL participants, remember that there will be voting at the end of all of this (more detail on that to come next week) - so with that in mind please try to read as many of these fics as possible and support your fellow ficcers with some feedback. Many of these stories have been posted for weeks, so I'm sure you've read many of them already, right? ;)

My entry for the ficathon is here if you follow the link:

Rating: PG
Disclaimer: Unfortunately I own nothing, Joss is the Boss.
Summary: No fancy parades or cake making just two people drying dishes as they watch the snow fall. 
Author's Notes: This was supposed to be up a lot earlier, but it grew and grew into the mess it is. Hopefully it's still readable. 
Thanks: xfirefly9x for inadvertently introducing me to this ficathon, and carmen_sandiego for organising it
Spoilers: Not really any, set between 'The Message' and 'Heart of Gold'

Title:  Firsts

Rating:  Er … PG?

Disclaimer:  I don’t think I own anything.  Not even the kimono. 

Summary:  In the gloomy midwinter, many years ago . . . Inara can’t sleep.  She seeks tea for comfort.  Mal seeks her. 

Author's Notes: My first Firefly fic ever.  I am excited to be involved in the ficathon but a little intimidated, I must confess. 

Thanks: To anyone who reads, carmen_sandiego for putting together the contest, and Laura for introducing me to Firefly. 

Spoilers: This is set between “Ariel” and “War Stories.”

I apologize to our esteemed organizer, the lovely [info]carmen_sandiego, for my, uh, tardiness, to be extremely generous. Many, many thanks as well to my beta [info]sosmitten23 for her feedback, which was excellent as always. Mal and Inara (and Kaylee) don't belong to me, but I love them dearly. Feedback is love.

And as a last author's note: Thinking about a winter's night, and winter, I went literall and got stuck on Tori Amos's "Winter," particularly the lyric, When you gonna love you as much as I do? When you gonna make up your mind cause things are gonna change so fast all the white horses have gone ahead I’ll tell you that I’ll always want you near they say that things change my dear…

Circle of Seasons [01 Feb 2007|10:35pm]

[ mood | nervous ]

Title: Circle of Seasons
Disclaimer: Firefly is not my own. The characters are also not mine.
Summary: A perspective on the "seasons" of Mal's life and how that relates to Inara.
Rating: PG
A/N: This is a first attempt for me and I thought that I was never going to post this because it needs a LOT of work. The beginning is slow and a little repetative but it does get to the Inara parts eventually, although not as Mal/Inara centered as I would like. I am SO, not a writer, but I'm happy that I made the attempt. I hope that some of you enjoy it! :)

Truthsome Ficathon II - Week 4 [30 Jan 2007|08:38am]

My apologies for being slow on the draw with the ficathon update this week - I've been flattened by food poisoning for the last 2 days. (My advice is to avoid that if at all possible. I wouldn't wish it on Reavers. Well, maybe Reavers. But not Nisk'a.)

My Dearest Inara-[info]truthsome_fic [28 Jan 2007|05:05pm]

blugreendreams
[ mood | annoyed ]

Title: My Dearest Inara

Author: blugreendreams

Characters: Mal/Inara, Fransisco Serra(Inara's father), OFC's, Mention of Crew.

Summary: Mal and Inara finally get it right, then have to deal with the loss of her father. Stubborn hearts and grief. Not angsty, kinda sad in bits.

Word Count: 6000 plus. Don't run away, the parts are broken up with letters. You'll see, just read it!

A/N: THis fic took some time to simmer, and I am just glad, with the help of [info]terimaru and [info]browncoat_2x2, it was finally edible. So to speak. Thanks for the help and support, ladies!

My Dearest Inara )
