Eights and Tens blog-only excerpts?

Now that the published full chapters 1-11 are gathered (yay!), does anyone happen to have any of the brief posts that TMF posted on tumblr from future chapters? Especially the body swap episode and part where Claire admits that kissing Nicole in Jackson’s body is way hotter than just kissing Jackson, and that kissing Jackson in Nicole’s body is, like, heaven….

From Seriouslyaskew.

Yes, these.  Does anyone have these?

I don’t suppose you have any leads on chapter 10 of Eights and Tens do you? It’s killing my perfectionist side having 1-9 and 11 but not 10.

Nope. I never have any leads on anything.  Things just appear in my email or inbox, and then I put them in the dropbox.

With that said, I totally understand the annoyance in not having Chapter 10, and I am sure others do too.  Maybe someone in the vast world of the Internet can help us out?

Rachel’s coming out

Ok, so I’m a little slow on the uptake and never read this before today, but it just occurred to me that the tmf_Drabble4 piece is a prequel drabble on how Rachel came out in TSS. How did I not know this?

Endlessdreamer13 submitted:

Do you know why TMF doesn’t upload all her fics or does and then later removes them? I really liked the pezberry bet one and that’s gone now and she left ff.net.

—-

Well, endlessdreamer13, the short answer is no, I don’t know. :/

The long answer, from TMF herself, is here.

I will say, however, that there may be some confusion here.  TMF isn’t currently writing and/or publishing fic (as far as we know), and she hasn’t published anything since….Julyish.

Despite this, while I am not entirely sure which Pezberry fic you are referring to, she left every complete fic on AO3 and most of her incomplete works can be found here, in the Tumfslove dropbox.  Although, perhaps you mean The Mating Game?

If what you are looking for isn’t in the dropbox, feel free to ask again.  People send me different TMF works all the time. :)

Also, hello!

Eights and Tens

I see you’ve posted bits of Eights and Tens: I’ve got everything tumfs posted in a pdf http://dl.dropbox.com/u/79584/Eights%20and%20Tens.pdf

Mars and Venus

(In addition to being a genius and writing the best Glee fanfic ever,) I really need to thank TMF for getting me hooked on Veronica Mars

How bad, really, is the loss of TMF to the fandom?

I suspect it’s increasingly hard for any Glee fanfic writer to continue to write — I definitely have no motivation to continue/ complete my half-finished ideas. If you extend that thought, it’s unlikely that TMF, having broken away so neatly, will ever write Glee fanfic again — and that is an extremely depressing idea to digest.

I’ve been trying to put this in perspective after a re-reading marathon which included a week of just reading ECFC over and over again…

I guess it’s not as bad as Achele being the broke-ass non-event that it turned out to be (but not by much).

Definitely much worse than Glee turning into what it has — well turned into (which is, well, shit).

I think it says a lot when a single fanfic writer is — by miles — far more important than the entire fucking show…

Damn.
