Thanks for all the hard work babe - I thought I was finally going daft and had missed it somehow... *g*

[birggitt.livejournal.com]

*laughs* Well, I certainly went daft, as I was sure I had posted it this Monday!

[shooting2kill.livejournal.com]

Yes, thank you for all your work! Lots of interesting information, here.

[birggitt.livejournal.com]

You are welcome :D

[firlefanzine.livejournal.com]

Great job, as always!
Thank you!

Pros fandom news?
We've built a LJ community for German stories! Let's see if it works... :-)

Great! I'm friending the new comm with my sockpuppet journal :D
Lots of luck with it :D

[firlefanzine.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

I think we need luck! We're so used to read the english stories, that it 'sounds' wrong in German... - but it's easier to write in your own language.

[birggitt.livejournal.com]

Oh, I know! My language is Spanish, and it's the same thing when I read any fandom in it. ~sigh~
There is/was some kind of talk-your-own-language party at Dreamwidth, but I couldn't manage the time to actually go and see what it was all about :/
