Just realized that you said 2003, Artemis. What happened to 2004, y'all? Laura “Rules only make sense if they are both kept and broken.

However, as a result of discussions last January, due to the number of fic we had by the end of 2003, it was decided to hold off at least until the next year. Here are some interesting numbers for you: We had 40 nfic stories completed in 2003, 6 of which are George and Lynn stories. As of October 31 this year, we have had 24 nfic stories completed in 2004, 3 of which are George and Lynn stories. 6 stories were started in 2004 and still incomplete: Wherever You Will Go by skfolc Long, Strange Trip by Thirtysomething (AKA Leela) Stand Off by Kippcarrieann Concrete Jungle Love by Chaabreh Act 4: A Season of Love, Part 1 (George and Lynn nfic) by Echo The Friends We'd Do For A Friend by Sarah and Kaylle Haunting Eden by Lynn M. Lois & Clark: The Family Adventures of Superman by RodStewFan We can open up discussions again this January and get folcs' opinions once we see where we stand at the end of this year. Thanks! Dawn & Crew

I have a question though: what's a George and Lynn fic? Mirage Clark: You're really high maintenance, aren't you? Lois: Yes, but I'm worth it!

George and Lynn stories are nfics about two actors, George and Lynn (which, as it happens, are the respective middle names of Dean and Teri), who are working on a TV show about a superhero. They're a matter of some contravercy. Some FoLCs hold that they're not L&C fics because they're not about Lois, Clark, or any of the people in their associated multiverse (the L&C universe + the alt-universe + other elseworlds). Others say that they fall within the scope of the fandom, and should therefore count. The moderators of these boards tend towards the former stance, but G&L stories are welcome in the nfic section of Zoomway\'s Message Boards. Paul When in doubt, think about penguins. It probably won't help, but at least it'll be fun.

But then do the George and Lynn fics have constant characters, or are the only constant characters George and Lynn? Mirage Clark: You're really high maintenance, aren't you?
