It pains me to admit that I can't finish Another Origins in one sitting, but it's true. I've been trudging through it, but it's a beast - very long.

If you want me to summarize up what I've gotten read so far, I'd be happy to - after all, a summary is just a teaser, right? Not the entire story summed up. Then you'd just read the summaries and not the stories.

Exactly. ^_^

Summarize it from what you've read already, that's okay. I did the same for Blood Diary.
Since both are from A-F, I expect the style to be similar to Blood Diary. In that case the intent of the story and the genre should be pretty clear from the start and not changing much within the story.

Chao just told me he finished four more in one sitting. Whee!

Chaore · « **Reply #153 on:** February 20, 2010, 07:40:40 PM »

Which is... Nothing but the truth.

Which means its just down to the last two.

One of which is part of my old assignment list... OTL. Geez, I'm slow -_-

In any case, I just sent in a summary for #71, meaning that there's one left to summarize: #63, Valesta's Thought's End. Home stretch time!

Awwww year we do'n it nao y'awl

Chaore · « **Reply #156 on:** February 21, 2010, 05:40:06 AM »

I've been informed the last summary has been sent.

Therefore, We're all green.

Dead Princess Sakana · « **Reply #157 on:** February 21, 2010, 06:14:44 AM »

Wonderful work everyone. We've got all summaries now. \(^_^)/

I'll make the final list with Ruro today, so look forward to seeing the results of your work tomorrow everyone (unless something unexpected happens).

See ya going to write a crappy half page story now.

Good job all of you. It must have taken some amount of work to read all those stories.

Well done, everyone. This board is made more awesome by your efforts.

Hideki · « **Reply #160 on:** February 21, 2010, 01:22:42 PM »

All done? Wow, that must have been a real piece of work. Good job to all. 9I kinda feel like working on my fic, but I'm still a horrible writer...)

Dead Princess Sakana · « **Reply #161 on:** February 21, 2010, 02:05:08 PM »

As much as we appreciate all of your sentiments, have a bit of patience until we can show the results. :V
After that you're free to celebrate the Librarian Squad as much as you want

Awesome. :3

As only to be expected.

Nothing gets by the librarian squad. NOTHING.

I'm trying to get home as quick as I can, but it might be a bit. Sorry for the delay :x

Says me? I'm not talking too much about quality here (although I hold no illusions there) but I suck at quantity of writing. When I have writer's block, it sometimes takes me a month to get a paragraph out.

So, are you guys going to start posting the reviews? I'd like to see what you've been up to.

Just gotta find your muse, is all. I sit down and listen to some music, and the ideas just start comin' along. Whatever does it for you, if you wanna write, sit down and enjoy yourself and your inspiration. Friend of mine plays games to get his inspiration (although he doesn't write much to begin with).

Oh, well, y'see, after much deliberation, us Librarians decided that only Librarians can see the summaries. You'll have to apply and pay dues and stuff if you wanna read -

I'd just like to mention that I love whoever wrote the summary for my fic. :3

IcedFairy · « **Reply #174 on:** February 22, 2010, 03:15:29 AM »

AWESOME.

Drat, I should have written something new for this. Something that wasn't based on spam emails. Oh well, I've still got some good imageboard reposts with me...

And Three Days bright is listed as Incomplete? Is that a comment or a request?

Consider it a request. :3

Gpop · « **Reply #176 on:** February 22, 2010, 03:22:37 AM »

So for fic's like mine who's still working on it, will the summaries change as it's updated?

#111
Name: Touhou Project Shanikusai (Note: It's in Italian, with an incomplete English translation)
Author: Kira.Lu
Status: To be continued
Genre: Adventure
Summary: A story of a girl seeking magic in Gensokyo, and the tale that unravels itself from this simple wish.

Mukyu~

Alfred F. Jones · « **Reply #178 on:** February 22, 2010, 04:17:25 AM »

Right then, let me clarify some stuff now that the initial exhilaration is over~

- The "length" category was struck out. I didn't much like the idea of people avoiding the "long" ones for that reason. The lengths were for us summarizers in the first place, to share work evenly when making the assignments.
- The "status" category still needs some hammering and standardizing.
- As to Gpop's question: Yes, the summaries will change as needed. That's why the Librarian usergroup exists. They're responsible for the maintenance of the Fanworks Listing now. :3
- Short stories had a much bigger chance of being seen as "incomplete", depending on the summarizer. We'll work on standardizing that later.
- Jan: Shanikusai is a monster of a translation project, you've just translated the first chapter. Still, since that's all Kira.Lu has posted, it's technically complete. My bad.

Awesome job, all~ Grats on the victory!
