Based on requests from sweetprincipale and RESPICE FINEM, we have some new categories for stories.
First up are categories for individual comic seasons and for comics in the buffyverse that don't fit within a specific season. Previously we only had one category for all comic based stories, but each season now has its own category. I haven't removed the comic category yet since there are currently 47 stories in that category. If you have a story in the comic category, you can now edit it to reflect the correct season. There is still a post-series category that can cover stories that are both comic and non-comic compliant. Any thoughts about the need to split this into 2 categories (post-series comic compliant and post-series non-comic compliant)? I'm not sure if there's a need for this, but I know some people avoid the comics, so I thought I'd throw it out there.
Next, there are now categories for award winners and award runners-up. There used to be categories just for Spark and Burn award winners, but we opened it up to winners and runners-up of all fandom awards. If you have stories that fit into these categories, feel free to add them accordingly. It goes without saying, but I'll say it anyway :) , please don't add your stories to the award categories if they don't belong there.
Please feel free to let me know if you have any questions or comments.

Woot!
Great idea!
This is excellent, gonna be really helpful for me categorising my stories ^_^
Whee! I'm especially psyched about the "Award Winners" category, because sometimes I lose track of things I mean to go back and read!
I'm not sure it would be useful to have a "Post-Series Comics Compliant" category, because the comics are ongoing and anything could be jossed everytime a new issue comes out. It's safer to have the seasons, and readers can judge for themselves if they want to stay away from any comics-based content.
Yay! I didn't expect this to happen since I never saw a response (if there was one I missed it).
Susan, you're awesome!
Sweetprincipale, thanks! We aim to please .
RESPICE FINEM, I was buried under a bunch of (real) work stuff when your request came in, and I forgot to respond. It was a great idea though, and I'm glad you brought it up.
Rebcake, thanks for the input. That's what I was thinking, but I figured I throw the other option out there. The lesson to be learned is that my gut feeling is always right .
alive_or_dead, EllieRose and Dactlygirl, glad you like it! Thanks for the feedback.
I love the expanded Awards Category - I have found a lot of new works to read from the listing. Thanks for all the work you folks do.
Thank you, Susan! You guys work so hard to keep the Spuffy community happy and motivated.
