For June 2004:   The Moonlight Spotlights go to:  Foxhunt2blue E-mail: foxhunter2blue@yahoo.com Someone I just recently discovered who's just blessed with jaw dropping talent.

I love and adore writers like this and it only means that our btvs/ats verse is still thriving and will be for quite a while. Visit her site: Tarnished Halo !! The Sunlight Spotlights go to: no one For May 2004:   The Moonlight Spotlights go to: Janet Lynn : janet324@comcast.net An author of all kinds of pairings with unique ideas and a wide range in her writings. Smart plots, hot scenes of het and slash, and so much much more. I adore her. She is *the only* author I have authored to make a site for and be total webmistress of and I adore her, she's one of the few that I flock to immediately every time for Willow/Spike and W/S/A... since I've sorta went into other pairings fascinations. So that should say something itself. Her site: For the Faithful http://www.geocities.com/stricken_girl/FortheFaithfulEntrance.htm  and Sweetness (an author we have in our fics section and that is part of the yahoo group!): sweetness7a@yahoo.com Wow, what an up and comer, she seems to be able to write anything, lol.

No Spotlight Winners for March or April sorry... due to my not having time and for the Sunlight, no one nominating. For February 04:  The Moonlight spotlights go to...  Rune: Rune@elusive-soul.com One of the first slash fic writers I'd ever read... If you like male slash fics, especially Angel(us)/Spike, spike/xander, and other pairings.. you *have* to read her stuff. Such a major talent.. she can write angst deliciously, can do humor, and everything in between. Also, her manipulative art is freakishly spectacular, so please please go look at those too. Her site for just her fic and art, Elusive Soul: http://elusive-soul.com/ is where you can find her stuff. Also give her archive of slash fic by others a try ... My Immortal Beloved: http://www.my-immortal-beloved.co.uk/   and Inell: Inell@aol.com An all time favorite Willow fic writer. And incredible talent with a wide range. Angsty, Funny, smutty, drama, horror, dark... Able to pair up Willow with just about anyone and make it look right... my favorites that she's done are Willow/Spike (yes, she addicted me to this pairing when I was new to all of this) , Willow/Angel, Willow/Spike/Angel... she even has done some femslash.. and Willow/Lindsey to name a few..... She's written lots and lots of fics for you to gobble up and it's highly addictive to read them... She started writing a long time ago in this verse and is *still* writing today. A shinning example of how Willow writing should be done. And she's had to have written over two hundred fics... so no matter how fast you read, you should be able to have great reading material for a while. Visit her site and go read!!: Kiss or Kill http://members.fortunecity.com/kissorkill The Sunlight: Both of these authors are inventive and well written.. how lucky am I to catch a read of the work! Make sure to check them out.

Willa: willsheornillshe@hotmail.com Who's, a new writer, and very often writes, and shows a gift for writing many different tones (humor, angst, passion, etc.) in her fics perfectly . With lots of talent, I find myself a bit jealous! lol. www.willshenillshe.com Kat B.: bonenkaos@centurytel.net Who's enormous fic/series/book is definately something special.
