Dormant Muses

I figured that I can try writing something entertaining to bring in the new year. Thoughts? :)


There was a time when I used to believe that there's no such thing as a bad date.

That was waaay back when I was young and foolish. After being exposed to the dating battlefield for some time, I've seen the worst. (Please pray to God that you won't go through this at all.) Warning: Don't try this when you really like someone! 

Hello everyone! Names have been drawn for the exchange, so check out your "baby"'s wishlist, and start working on your gifts! :) Again, if you have questions, you can use the "Ask Questions Anonymously" feature.

Have fun!

I know...it's been a long, long, looooong time since I (or anyone else, for that matter) had posted here, but since my residency application finished last month and I now have a bit more time to get back to my non-hospital activities, I thought...why not revive this community again? I got in touch with some of you and the response was overwhelmingly positive, so...

Hello again, everyone!

And what better way to celebrate this comeback by having another secret santa exchange, like we did back in 2008? (Good grief, it's been 3 years?)

Instructions: (Yes, I ripped it off 2008's gift exchange instructions. /is lazy)

1. Sign up here, or comment on this post with your email address, so I can add you to the exchange. Sign-up deadline is on December 10, 2011.

*I actually already invited those of you who joined in before, but do invite other people into the exchange anyway! The more the many-er merrier!

2. Make up your own wishlists. Since we're only an online community, you probably have to settle for fics (possibly with prompts), original stories, art, and the like. (Unless your Santa is a very generous person and willing to give you an actual gift, haha. Why not?)

3. If you have questions to ask the person you drew, Elfster has an "Ask Questions Anonymously" feature.

4. Exchange date is on January 1, 2012 (12 MN in whatever timezone you're in). Post your "gifts" here on the community*.

*I'm going to make another community again for this one, like musesanta2008, so watch out for that post soon.

Comments? Post away! And sign up now!



By the way, other things for your consideration:

1. Promote this community! We'd love to have fresh blood new members!

2. What do you guys think of a name change? Any suggestions? (Because, uh, we did become dormant.)

3. How about a Dreamwidth mirror, what with all the recent attacks on Livejournal?

Feel free to give your thoughts!

In the summer of 2008, a rag-team of authors and artists gathered together to create a compilation of alternative universe stories and illustrations for one of the most well-known pairings in Masashi Kishimoto's work, Naruto. With the need to express creativity by deviating them from the canonical storyline, A Fractured Fairytale : An Alternative Universe Anthology is born. Composed of thirty-six fictions and forty images, this anthology expresses tribute for Uchiha Sasuke and Haruno Sakura and their well-loving fans.

On July 18, 2010, the fracturedtales community released the hardbound copies. However, since the purpose of the project is to reach every single sasusaku fan, the e-book was also planned to be released in public.

Now after a year of the event, in the spirit of the sasusaku_month, we present to you the PUBLIC E-BOOK VERSION.

To mikochan_noda . In honor of all the female reproductive organs that has demised since the birth/creation of one Tsuruga Ren (whatever else name he has used in the past). This is a little bit crackish and gawrsh-what-was-I-thinking?!? Please forgive this unworthy one. T__T

Edited to fix the confused subject line @__@ (thanks, miakamouse ), the typos, and the runaway italics.
