Just a few items for this Thursday morning (or whenever it is where you are).

First, I wanted to point out that I have done some work on the reviews section. When you get an email saying that you have a new review or an author response, it will now include the review/response text (this is only if you have it set to email you for those things in your preferences, of course). Also, the author response section now includes the date/time of the response and it is more clearly separated from the review itself so that it's more noticeable. This will not apply to previously posted responses though since they are already formatted and I don't want to go into the database and reformat thousands of reviews. The biggest change though is that once an author responds to a review, the reviewer has the ability to add additional comments, as does the author. The screen cap below shows the new threaded review system. I've been staring at a screen for a little too long, so if this is confusing, let me know and I'll answer any questions you may have. As always, let me know if anything looks off or doesn't seem to be working properly.

Next, I wanted to update you all on the addition of classic Spuffy fics to EF. As you can tell by the lack of classic fics being updated, it's kind of come to a screeching halt. I sent out lots of emails, but most got returned due to out of date email addresses. If you happen to know any of the older authors, feel free to let them know that we would be more than happy to load their fics on here for them, but other than that, I think that well has kind of run dry.

Finally, I noticed that as of late October, Elysian Fields has been online for 7 years. Happy birthday to us  .
