I'm guessing 8.01 will air at the C&S (assuming we get a positive reply soon) on Wednesday 5th March. Wouldn't want to start on Sunday 2nd because I think we should have a few episodes completed in advance, in case one writer hits difficulties and there is a delay. :-)

So I'm not expecting an answer soon, just wanted to ask a question. Would it
be possible to begin posting our S8 Fanfic episodes on the Cross and Stake,
possibly ever Sunday and Wednesday. These would run as a full 22-episode
season, with a promo being released the day before the episode, if that's
permissable.

If you're interested in taking a look at some of our ideas to get a better
understanding of what we're aiming for, feel free to have a good old lurk,
or even post, at www.voy.com/134358/

I hope that this Fic season will be coming at a good time - obviously in the
build-up to the *real* BtVS finale, tensions may run a little high on the
board, and our SHIP-FREE (yes, we were very specific about that!) fics may
be a nice relief for boardies. Plus it shouldn't cause any arguments... :-)
And I think we've got a good strong season coming together - some are
written in Wildfeed format, whilst a lot of the others are written as full
scripts. The wildfeed-style 8.01 is up at our forum now!

But like I said, you've got a lot on your plate at the moment. If you get
the chance, an email back would be great!

I thought I already e-mailed you back on this...guess not. :) Yes, the episodes can be posted like you have planned, but my only concern is the promo. Is it possible to maybe include a promo with the preceding episode instead of a new thread the day before? I'm just thinking about the craziness of the board on Tuesdays. We can try the promos the day before if they can't be done the day of the preceding episode, but depending on how the responses go and the traffic on the board, we may need to find an alternative time for that. :)

Looking forward to seeing the posts! :)

How cool is that?! :-)

**NEW ASSIGNMENT** If you think you're a good promo writer, then write a "Season Build-up" promo, to publicise the new season and hint at things to come in S8!
