October who?!
First things first: Manly Request Week is officially over. WOW. I'd never expected (1) to get that many or (2) that they would take so long. You can browse the finished collection
here or browse by character in
brokenprism's tags
here.
I'm actually pleased with most of them. "Garage" (for
bottle_of_shine) is rushed and I know it, but that's what happens when you write at work and you know you only have 20min to finish this piece and then you have to go home; however, the idea was good, and it may be expanded on, mostly because Seifer is now eating my brains. "Duties" (for
scribe_protra) suffers from voice issues as well, but I've identified my problem there (which mostly involved starting with a piece from last year rather than starting from scratch! but ah well), so I think I've learned something!
Sigh. So now I have October to catch up on claims, work on "Shine Like Gold" and "How Not To Date Blondes", and plan out NaNo for November!

In other news,
hilldo, is it true that every other member of the J-Squad got a piece on Friday night but you? HEE.

So really. Where did September go? And why'd it go so freaking fast?!
