Help Finding Authors

[foxrafer.livejournal.com]

EDIT: Thanks to all of you. Gotta lock it down and finalize the ballots now but I really appreciate all the help.


There are a few authors I haven't been able to reach yet, so I'm hoping someone here will be able to help me. If you know any of the following people and have a way of getting in touch with them, could you please let me know (or contact them and ask them to touch base with me).

Thanks!

I've talked to edoraslass, and left a note in illwynd's journal.

Thank you!

Also, LJ recently started offering a "Send this user a message"-function on the user Profile pages. You might be able to contact folks on LJ through that.

[foxrafer.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the tip. I had sent a few of those LJ messages earlier, but it definitely can't hurt to send some more. Hopefully they'll get in touch today or tomorrow.

mirabile_dictu is more often these days over at insanejournal.com...

[foxrafer.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I'll try leaving a comment for her over there.

[koulagirl666.livejournal.com]

I left a message on littlegreenleaf's journal.

[foxrafer.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

mirabile_dictu has move to Insane journal, same name.

[foxrafer.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I'll go leave a message over there.

deleerium made a post recently on her journal so she's probably not too far underground but she's really not around a whole lot these days. You might want to try contacting talesinbloom she might know of a different way of getting a hold of her.

[foxrafer.livejournal.com]

Great suggestion; I'll send her a note and see if she can help. Thank you!

[amygirl.livejournal.com]

You're welcome.

Also...I don't know how long you have but Orlijah month is in January and she's bound to pop up for that...

[angiepen.livejournal.com]

You might also try her here: http://www.journalfen.net/users/deleerium/

She's been a co-mod at Citadel since its founding, and the other mod left a few months ago on a round-the-world trip, so I imagine Jenny's been even busier than game mods usually are. Journalfen might be a better bet than LJ.

That's good info to have; I'll leave a message for her over there as well. Thank you!

[sweetsorcery.livejournal.com]

Just a short version of my message response, as I'm not sure if and how that might come to you.

My e-mail is: sweetsorcery_@_gmail_com

My blog is now exclusively at: http://sweetsorcery.insanejournal.com/profile

RE: posting of my story after the award - not on LJ, please! It's online here (http://www.geocities.com/sweetsorcery/maketheworld.html), however. Thanks for the nomination!

[foxrafer.livejournal.com]

Great! Thanks so much. I hope to have the final ballots completed tomorrow.

[sweetsorcery.livejournal.com]

I feel like an unbelievable dunderhead. I found an e-mail from you at Gmail this morning - only just, as the idiots saw fit to label it as spam! Unfortunately, in the process of trying to transfer it back into my inbox, it got deleted. Now I did get a quick glimpse of it to see it was about the location of my nominated story, and I think you had the Geocities address. If so, that's correct. If I was still too sleepy to read it properly, please let me know. :)

[foxrafer.livejournal.com]

You got it; I was checking to see if the link was correct. I have http://www.geocities.com/sweetsorcery/maketheworld.html as the link for the story. If you would like to switch it, just let me know.

[sweetsorcery.livejournal.com]

Great. And yes, that's the right link. Thanks!

[shinysparkly.livejournal.com]

I got your comment on my LJ and I'm in. Thanks! :)

[foxrafer.livejournal.com]

Fantastic! Thank you.

[lucky-jack.livejournal.com]

Have sent an email to arabia764 alerting her.

[foxrafer.livejournal.com]

Great. Thank you so much.

[weotolkien.livejournal.com]

Hey, is it lobelia or lobelia321 you're looking for? I think it's probably the latter.

[foxrafer.livejournal.com]

Honestly I don't know :-) The name was listed as lobelia but it could very well be lobelia321. Do you know how to get in touch with her?

[cupiscent.livejournal.com]

I was going to ask the same question. If it's lobelia321, then to the best of my knowledge the email addy in her profile is still active, or you could try sending her an LJ message.

[foxrafer.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I just left a comment over there so hopefully I'll hear back tonight.

[sweetsorcery.livejournal.com]

As I'm on IJ myself, I did a quick search for your other missing authors, and might have located sindahise (http://sindahise.insanejournal.com/profile) and mirabile_dictu (http://mirabile-dictu.insanejournal.com/profile) at least.
I don't know them myself, but I left a quick message with a link to this post in their journals.

[foxrafer.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I'll check over there too.

[ladysunrope.livejournal.com]

I've left a message for uluithiel to contact you if she's interested.

[foxrafer.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[littlegreenleaf.livejournal.com]

I understand that you need to have my permission to include me in your awards. I'd be more than honored, certainly! Thank you!

[foxrafer.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[bluespirit-star.livejournal.com]

I've sent an email to Maria Layne. I know she's not active in fandom anymore but hopefully she'll be able to get back to you.

[foxrafer.livejournal.com]

Thanks. If she can get back to me in the next couple of hours we can still make it work.

Hi

[sindahise.livejournal.com]

Sorry, I've been in and out of the hospital for most of the month of December, I haven't been online much.

You can email me at sindahise@yahoo.com.

Re: Hi

[foxrafer.livejournal.com]

I e-mailed you on the 30th, but I think it must be going into your spam filter like my previous ones. :-) I was so sorry to hear that you had been sick (a couple of days ago mrsbean sent me a message to let me know). I'm glad to see that you're out of the hospital and hope that you are making a complete recovery.

Unfortunately, the ballots have already been posted and voting started a couple of weeks ago. But if I'm not mistaken all of the nominated stories (Blood Brothers, Denim Blues and A Million Miles of Loss) were in the Classic fiction category and I can count them as nominations for the next round if you're amenable to have them included in the awards next year.

Let me know if you'd like them included in the nominations during the 2008 round (whether they'll end up on the final ballot will depend on the number of nominations each story receives).

Thanks for getting in touch with me, and I hope you're doing much better.

Re: Hi

[sindahise.livejournal.com]

No problem and yes, you have my permission. I thank you for considering them.

I checked my past email and you don't turn up but spam cleans itself up periodically. Sigh.
