Hi hi! Just a heads-up that I just posted an icon batch here (http://dreamlittleyo.livejournal.com/200610.html)!

Thanks!

Hi! Would it be possible to include a note in the next newsletter mentioning that [livejournal.com profile] ship_manifesto (here (http://ship-manifesto.livejournal.com/270318.html)) and [livejournal.com profile] rp_manifesto (here (http://rp-manifesto.livejournal.com/2548.html)) are both hosting free months (no claims necessary) until the end of June, so anyone who wants to write a manifesto for their pairing/threesome/moresome (either fictional or real), no matter how unlikely or non-canon-based it is, is encouraged to do so. Thanks! :D

We do already have a couple of B5 manifestos on our masterlist (http://ship-manifesto.livejournal.com/tag/!master%20list), but there are so many more possibilities! Free Month is also a chance for people to put their own spin on represented pairings as well as tackle new ones.
