NEW & UPDATED RECS
Kendra A had added several recs, and a substantial amount of blurbs as well, so now you know *why* she thinks the slash is good. Enjoy!

November 1, 2003

THANK YOU FOR 2,300 HITS!

Sorry it's been so long, everybody! Kendra A and Len have been puttering about and unfortunately not actually doing much. They plead busy in work and school, and will try to be more pleasing in the near future.

Now.
NEW AWARDS
Len - "Confusion, Confessions" won 2nd Place for Best Overall Willow fic in the Past Imperfect Awards.
Kendra A - "Full Circle or, Serendipity" won 2nd Place for Best Friendship fic in the Pure Imagination Awards.

NEW RECS/LINKS
Len has added recs for the West Wing, and Kendra has added some more Gundam Wing and Harry Potter slash recs and links.

Also. Keep an eye out. It is likely that we will be moving the site soon because Angelfire has added extra pop-ups plus banners left, right and center. We're looking to be hosted on a privately-owned site. We'll announce before we move.

September 24, 2003

UPDATED FICTION:
Not fanfiction, alas, but Kendra A has finished a set of original poems - "Preludes" - and would absolutely die of rapture if you sent her some feedback.

September 21, 2003

NEW FICTION:
All of Kendra A's original poems are up, and three out of for original short stories.

NEW FANFICTION:
Len has added a Monk fic to her Miscellaneous fandoms page.

September 17, 2003

Heh. Oops. The summer ended and classes began rather quickly for both Len and Kendra A, which is the only excuse they have for not getting anything done for so long. All they can say is, "Sorry?"

NEW NEWS:
We're nominated. *cough* Again. Kendra has a nominating problem, okay? Anyhoo. In the Past Imperfect Awards, Len has "One Word, Three Syllables" and "Confusion, Confessions" nominated, and Kendra A has "Tried So Hard," "One Soul for the Price of Two," and "Everyday" nominated. We'll see how that goes. And you all will vote, won't you? Because you love us?

Also. As you can see on the main menu page, we've got some new stuff going on. Very very soon both Len and Kendra A will be posting some originals, and we will also have some guest authors with a couple of originals to share. Kendra A met them at a fiction-writing class and thinks they're brilliant, and so their stuff will be up soon too.

NEW LINKS and NEW RECS:
The Harry Potter links and fic recs have been divided into gen/het and slash, because Kendra A, the crazy slasher-girl, realized after much consideration that other people are not necessarily slash fans. So! Now it's easier to find what you're looking for. There are also lots of new slash links and recs.

NEW FANFICTION:
A Cordelia/Gunn snippet, "Bliss," by Kendra A in her random 'ships section.
Len will have some fic updates coming soon.

July 18, 2003

Because Kendra A. is currently busy learning how to win Pulitzer Prizes, the job of updating falls to Len. Len will do her best not to blow-up the site in Kendra A.'s absence...but she makes no promises.

For this update, Len stretched her ossified webpage-making muscles far enough to post a few of the extended recommendations on the 'Fic Recommendations' page. If nothing blows up in the next couple hours, she will probably update further (fingers crossed!).

Happy reading!

July 11, 2003

Len is nominated in the Precious Illusion Spike fanfiction awards! Her fic "One Word, Three Syllables" is up for Best Short Story and for Best Romance.

Len, Kendra A and Penumbra itself are all nominated in various categories in the Vamped Awards.

Aside from all this blatant self-promotion, something of substance will most likely happen soon.

July 8, 2003

No new fanfiction as of, erm, right this second. But we will have some for you very very soon.
We promise.

NEW NEWS:
Woo-hoo! Penumbra has just won Second Place for Best New Site in the past round of the Shades of Grey Awards.
(Kendra A was so excited by this that she went and nominated the site in the Magick Awards, too.)

And Kendra A won First Place for Best Conventional Dark/Angst with "China Frown," Second Place for Best Unconventional Dark/Angst with "Morning," and Second Place for Best Unconventional Drama with "One Soul for the Price of Two." ... What is it with that fic?

Anyhow. To all US folk who watched the fireworks, happy late Fourth of July. And we promise a proper update soon.

Eh. Not much. Just notice that the URL for the Dancing Witch Awards has changed.

NEW FANFICTION:
Len's Miscellaneous Fandoms:
Until we can get the files proper, each and EVERY fic has been linked to its posting on FFN.
This means that it's easier than ever to send Len feedback! You have no excuses now.

Kendra has finally given each fic with something to say for itself a title.
Weiss Kreuz: Refraction: chapter three is up.
