2001 Updates 30th December 2001 An interesting fiction from Philip S, called Obsidian. This one sounds like a comedy, but most definately isn't...this story is probably the last from our Christmas Special. Fourteen great stories...not bad for a prezzie, huh? 28th December 2001 I hope everyone had a good Christmas! well, now we've got a rather sweet story here from Cynamin. It's called Naming Day, and if you've any idea what happens in Season 3...you'll guess what this one's about... 23rd December 2001 I suspect it will be hard to make an update over Christmas, due to family and other things; So,just in case, I've decided to do a big one now, to make up for it. No peeking, now...December 23: Our final, ADULT story from Bulletproof is called Strange Fruit. Pretty Juicy, this one... December 24: I've chosen a great story from Jeanne Rose for your Christmas Eve reading Dust Thou Art - and this one's huge, it'll take you hours to read it! Christmas Day: Fancy a Christmas Day chuckle? try Serena's Caught With Their Pants Down (I think you can probably guess what this one's about...) December 26: I've added my story Lost to the archive; brand spanking new this one - I can guarantee you haven't read it anywhere else. Have a very Merry Christmas everyone, come back again soon! 22nd December 2001 Bulletproof's second story is a gentle little angsty-fic called The Breath of You. Enjoy! 21st December 2001 Here we introduce Bulletproof to our archive, with the first of three stories. It's an ADULT story called The End of Eternity Also, we welcome Chivalry is Dead to our Affiliates. 20th December 2001 Here's our second ADULT story from Serena, and it goes by the title of Breathing Room. Stay tuned for another great offering from this author, coming soon! 19th December 2001 Jeanne Rose joins our archive today with her Christmas story, A Candle in the Darkness. There will be another - non Christmas - fiction coming soon from this author...stay tuned! 18th December 2001 UK readers - and anyone else who hasn't seen Angel's Season 3 - might want to wait a while before reading I-55, as it contains a major spoiler. I find Yahtzee's yarns always leave me with a myriad of images, for days after, and this one is no exception. 17th December 2001 We've got another Christmas Story for you today, it's entitled By The Chimney With Care and comes to you courtesy of Christie. 16th December 2001 Hi! A new story, new author here with Serena and her ADULT B/A tale, Bliss. Romantics will be...er...perfectly happy with this one. 15th December 2001 Maybe Angel isn't fond of Christmas, but we are! Welcome to our Seasonal Special...and have we got a treat for you! Actually, yes...there's extra new stories, Christmas stories, new authors and old favourites too. We kick off the fun with a Christmas B/A story from Ducks, called Merry Merry Dreaming. Happy Christmas! 14th December 2001 We have a second great story here from Gem...her B/A tale The Road Home...ready to read now! 12th December 2001 Another great new author for your enjoyment...this time it's Gem's Buffy POV story, Everything you want. 10th December 2001 The final story from Jennifer-Oksana is to be found on the ADULT Index, and goes under the title Freaks, Control and Otherwise. It's told from Lilah's point of view - and to find out more, you're going to have to read it yourself... 8th December 2001 Our second story from Jennifer-Oksana is just as dark, just as good, as her last one. It's called Jezebel In Hell, and is Rated R. 5th December 2001 We've a treat in store for all fans of dark fiction, as we add Jennifer-Oksana to our growing band of authors. Here we have Merciful, the first of three titles from this talented lady. Enjoy! 3rd December 2001 New from Karen Wood, for Kate/Angel fans, is her story Reflections. So, go and take a look... 2nd December 2001 It's December! and with it comes our new Recommended Fic; This one's ideal to fill all that extra free time you'll have... 29th November 2001 You might want to have a hanky ready when you read Something to Remember by Perri Smith. It's a sentimental future fic...and this one's an outside link, so we hope to see you again after! 27th November 2001 Todays fiction is an ADULT Cordelia/Angel story from WasabiOni called Now It's Dark. It's sort of dark-angsty and I'm not sure who I felt most sorry for after reading this one - Angel or Cordy... Oh, and we welcome The Hellmouth Chronicles to our Affiliates list... 24th November 2001 A new author joins us today with her intriguing Kate/Angel story... it's called Walking Wounded and is by Abi Z. Enjoy! 22nd November 2001 I think we've gone all mushy on you this week. Our latest romantic story is Dust and Sunlight by Cynamin. Aah... 20th November 2001 We welcome Amy to our archive with Forever Times a Day. It's a B/A angst-romance...and with those two, what other kind is there? 18th November 2001 Our third - and sadly final - story from Mike Dewar is darker than his other works, as it's set in the Wishverse. It's called Reflections Revealed, and I suggest you go and read it now! 17th November 2001 I've only gone and added some feedback forms, ain't I? They're here, and them's well nice, so go use 'em. Oh, and we've got some new Affiliates. No... really. No - really. ~Shifty Geezer 16th November 2001 Okay...here's the second story from Mike Dewar, and this one's my personal favourite. It's called Blood is Thicker Than Water, and be warned - once I started reading I couldn't put it down... 14th November 2001 Hi. We bring you the first of three stories from the creative mind of Mike Dewar. This one, Pure Emotion, is classified as humour - but is much more than that. If you like the humour of Angel (And what are you doing here if you don't?) you'll like this one. 11th November 2001 Our latest update introduces Michele and her dark story - Rated R - set in 1977. It's not, in any way, a happy story. You dark fans should love it. Also, I've added some new buttons and banners to our links page, and you can view them here. 10th November 2001 I've now knocked up a seperate page for Affiliates (not that we have any). Here, as it happens. Oh, and Dark Star's made a pretty little picture for the top of the Authors Index. Really. No kidding. ~Shifty Geezer 8th November 2001 Here's another great story from Yahtzee, called The Quality of Mercy. Most stories that feature both Angel and Riley seem to be either Riley-bashing or silly - this one isn't in either category; and it's believable too! 6th November 2001 Here we are again, bringing you yet another good read, and a new author, too! Karen Wood joins us with her Kate/Angel story, Cold. Hope you like it, I thought it was rather cool... 4th November 2001 An ADULT story here from Ducks, with I Don't Know How. We've had a lot of dark/angsy stuff lately, so I thought we'd go for... fluffy/angsty instead... 3rd November 2001 I moved the button and banner, didn't I? I did you know. The Link To Us page is what you want. We're now accepting sites for affiliation, contact Dark Star about it (enclosing a button for us) and she'll be happy to help! ~Shifty Geezer 2nd November 2001 And now for something completely different... a joint venture from two of my favourite authors, Rheanna and Yahtzee. Be careful though, this one contains huge spoilers for Angel's Season 2 finale, is rated R and is called Splinter. You'll need to hang on to your hats for this one, folks... trust me when I say it's very odd... 30th October 2001 If you like angsty fic, you'll be happy with this one from Rebecca Carefoot. It's called Buried Alive,(Rated R) and follows an alternate timeline. This one's an outside link, so come back again after! 28th October 2001 Our new story this time is from Seersha, called These Days. It's one of those 'missing years' stories set between the time Angel gets his soul back and when he meets Buffy... 27th October 2001 'Ello. I've got a new bit (you probably noticed already) - a new Recommendations page. With recommendations, geddit?! ~Shifty Geezer 25th October 2001 Hi! There's yet another new author for our archive - Laure Alexander with Sympathy for the Devil. It's a Faith POV, and I feel it captures her perfectly...five by five, in fact. 23rd October 2001 As promised, we've brought you the second of Kath's stories (This one's my favourite!) Priscilla. You can't say we don't bring you variety... 21th October 2001 We've begun implementing our new icon system(see Shifty's update yesterday for details) to make it easier for you to find what you want. Please bear in mind, though, that the categories are very 'loose' and are only intended as a rough guide. Fiction wise, there's the first of two stories from new author Kath, with Mending Fences, a little Wesley/Angel friendship story. 20th October 2001 Well if it isn't Mr Shifty himself making an update! I've added a brand new feature to the site, and it's rather smart if we may say so ourselves. We've come up with the idea of signposting our stories with icons to denote what genres they belong to - a heart for love stories, a smile for humour and so on. A key to them may be found over here, and Dark Star assures me she's going to start implementing the system very shortly. Top! ~Shifty Geezer 19th October 2001 With the approach of All Hallow's Eve shortly, we've added an ADULT Halloween treat from Tinkerbell. It's called Past Ghosts...Spooky! 16th October 2001 We've had another new author join our band of talented scribes. Welcome to Ailie with her story Take These Broken Wings... 14th October 2001 We've repaired some things and added others, so all should be ship-shape again. And there's another great story from Ducks, with The Stone", so settle down with your tea and biccies and enjoy! 10th October 2001 Our latest archive offering comes from Christie with her C/A story, Five Days of Darkness. Happy reading! 6th October 2001 If it's an adventure story you're after, try my new story Survival; great for all those who miss the old Buffy/Angel days... 4th October 2001 We've got two great stories from Diane for you. Reconstruction, which is long enough to get your teeth into, and Stopping the Rain, which is a very dark read. Hope you like them! 30th September 2001 For all you romantics and lovers of fluff, we have no less than three ADULT stories from Vatrixsta Cruden. Two B/A, with Glimpse and Golden Slumbers; also, there's one F/A, The Flow. Enjoy! 29th September 2001 Yes, normally it's Dark Star who writes the updates, but as it was me who did the new survey, I'm doing this one. Incidentally, there was a problem with the last survey on the old server, and if you sent us anything it probably didn't get there. Sorry about this, but could you fill it in again? I'd refrain from doing that if it was anything to do with me in the first place. Anyway, please fill it in, and we look forward (no, really) to reading your entries! ~Shifty Geezer 24th September 2001 Hey. We think we've ironed all the kinks out of our new site, but if you find any problems or wish to comment, feel free to email us. Our story is for ADULTS ONLY; it's called Vortex and is by Swikstr. I read this story some time ago but couldn't remember where I saw it; so I was very pleased to come across it again recently and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Once read, you won't forget it either. Oh, and it's an outside link, so don't forget to come back! 22nd September 2001 Lots of new stuff today! New site, new design, even a new story! Our apologies to anyone who had trouble reaching our old site (Traffic/server problems there...) but everything should be good now. Better, even... Our story is from the popular Rheanna - with For One NIght Only, so go here. 9th September 2001 We have a great new offering from Yahtzee with Phoenix Burning... and I hope you've brought your overnight bag, it's huge. Two new authors have joined us, too. Rachel, with Kissing mmm kissing, and Soo W with Polymorphism and Last Meal (Not as dark as it sounds this one...) All fiction is to be found on our general index. 25th August 2001 There's a treat in our general index this time, a great new story from Cynamin - On Ancient Wings. The adult section has Ain't That Enough from new author Chelle; also we've added What Has Been... Will Become. It's an intriguing little future fic from Seersha. Enjoy! 12th August 2001 Our general index this week has two new entries, Dreamwalk and A Little More Damage Control. While over in our adult section we've added Shades of Solace, Redemption and Ships That Pass Into Type. I won't keep you, I'm sure you can't wait to read them! 29th July 2001 There's loads of great new stories for you this time, and three new authors too. All types of stories from humour to angst - all available in our general, suitable-for-all index here. 14th July 2001 Most of the site is now up and running, and we've lots of new stories. In particular, the adult index is now looking more comprehensive! 1st July 2001 Welcome to our new site, finally. It's taken a little while to get organised, due to our old server closing the service we were using. Feedback is appreciated, so tell us what you think!
