As a matter of almost idle curiosity, what happened to the round-up for the middle of June? (And do we get a BrightKnightie recommendation this month?)

Did I miss some posts? As far as I know, there weren't any FK-related posts on my LJ Friends List or DW Reading Page between 06/10 (the latest listed on the previous "Recently" post) and 06/16 (the earliest listed on the current "Recently" post).

I do usually post this round-up much nearer the start of the month, though it's not on any specific schedule, and if I posted it more often, it wouldn't get so long. My apologies for any inconvenience.

>"And do we get a BrightKnightie recommendation this month?"

I may have to backdate at this rate (hopefully not), but yes, one way or another, there will be a new recommendation for July! And then one for August on its heels. :-) Thank you for asking.

Well, around 6-10 June, both Walt and I posted our fkficfest stories to FKFIC-L-or, at least, I posted my shorter pieces. You usually mention things that are posted to the list.

In the final post, I said that all of my short fkficfest stories were now on my website. Done pretty with graphics. You can access them at http://www.foreverknight.org/FK4/FKfanfic.htm

Attachments is simply too complicated to post on FKFIC-L. Apart from anything else it would have to suffer the death of a thousand cuts to be sliced up into small enough pieces. At this point, though, I have HTMLed the story (which even so, is going to have to be subdivided, since it's over 1MB); but I want to re-read it, and maybe revise it a little. I'll tell you when it's up.

>"You usually mention things that are posted to the list."

There are two distinct kinds of posts that I usually make monthly.

• One is marked with the tag " recently" and begins with the introduction, "Recently on my LJ Friends List and DW Reading Page." It lists posts that have appeared on blogs that I follow. It covers the span since the last "recently" post, whatever length of time that may be.
• The other is marked with the tag " recommendations" and introduces the recommendation of the month, recently with the label "What's good?" Frequently, this post also includes a section labeled "What's new on FKFic-L?" which lists stories that posted to the FKFic-L email list in the month before the month of the recommendation.

I regret any confusion I have caused with these posts.

and as Arthur in Camelot.

This is amazingly fantastically good news! Except for the part where there's no possible way I can swing Stratford this year.

There was a "what would you like to see the actors do?" discussion on FORKNI-L circa 1995, and this was at the top of my list. No lie. I would give a LOT just to hear him do the "Resolution" monologue at the close of Act I.

[brightknightie]

Actually, GWD's Camelot is 2011, next year. You have a whole year to figure out how to swing it. ;-)

I'm sorry for the confusion; I should have bracketed that bullet point off from the others. It came from the same person's blog, but all the other points are about 2010 plays, and only that one line is about 2011.

That's okay -- it's what I get for skimming! (And the timing couldn't be better on getting the news properly, as I've just found out the switch I need to replace inside my dryer is discontinued. *headdesk*)
