Meridian here for Wendy/Kittyinaz, and since I have several things to cover, let’s get started:
Good News:
1) Mama Kittyinaz successfully endured over eight hours of surgery today, and the prognosis at this time is very good. I personally encourage continued good thoughts, prayers, vibes, and all that other good stuff for their family. Wendy is, naturally, exhausted. I most sincerely hope she is currently snoozing happily away…or I’ll threaten her with The Muse. (That’s a serious threat, by the way…)
2) Voting in the Energize W.I.P. Awards is open!! From today, November 13th, through November 20th, you can cast your vote in several fandoms.
Our people and picks (no, this isn’t a hint…much):
EricIzMine’s LAR is up for: Most Promising True Blood Fanfiction
Kittyinaz’s You’re All I’m Asking For is up for: Most Promising Crossover Fanfiction
Birtie Bott’s Thirsty for Your Love is up for: Most Promising Crossover Fanfiction
4Padfoot is up for: Most Motivational Reviewer
and, last but definitely not least, I’m up for: Most Motivational Beta
Bad News:
The fanfiction world is grieving today as we have lost one of our own. Due to requests from her family and admins, at this time we are unable to mention this beloved person by name, but we know that there are many others who are aware of this information, and who are grieving with us.
We were unsure if we should post this chapter today but decided that the person we lost would not want us to put our lives and talents on hold for her, and felt that the best way to honor her would be to continue writing and posting stories about our favorite couple.
We post this chapter in her honor.
(On a personal note, I squalled like a baby while I was working on this chapter, so please have patience with any mistakes I may have missed. ~Mer)
Hi. I’m a fairly new Brat, but I can let you know that Angela’s mother gave permission to go public several hours ago.
Which means that I can confirm that EricIz Mine sadly passed away.
At this point, I am unsure about wether it is a good idea to post directly to her FB page, so until we hear for sure, please don’t tag her or post to her page.
Thankyou for those beautiful words Meridian, and I truly wish Wendy the best of luck in her recovery.
And now that I have found more lovely fanfiction to read, I might try to escape my grief in fantasy land for a while… Cos Hell knows I won’t be sleeping, even if i should.
take care all

I’m shocked at the news EricizMine has passed away and my thoughts and prayers are with Angela’s family at this very difficult time. She will be sadly missed but she will be remembered by the legacy of amazing writing she has left us with.
Thankfully Mama Kittinaz’s surgery has gone well and my thoughts go out to her as well, hoping for a fantastic recovery.
Best Wishes
