New MIRANDY Fandom Threads

August 24th, 2008

We’ve built two new threads in our MIRANDY fandom area. The AUTHOR TALK thread will host discussion on Mirandy FanFiction concerns (characterization, Canon etc) and the VIDEO LAB thread will be a resource area for folks eager to try their hand at Mirandy vids.

C’mon in and play!

Gina Dartt Wraps Long-Running Millennium Series

August 23rd, 2008

Famous as perhaps J/7 fandom’s most prolific fan fiction author, Gina Dartt has published the 20th and final installment of her Millennium series. Aptly titled “Final Frontiers”, the story brings the epic serial to an adventurous close. Gina has indicated that her sojourn in the J/7 universe is not necessarily over. There are apparently many stories left to tell, but none of them are likely to be as massive as her previous tomes. We wish Gina the best and look forward to her next efforts!

The Games are Open!
