That's right, TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT!

Now, I've talked about it before, but here's a quick recap:

The auction is to raise money for Stacie Holeman, to help her cover medical bills from battling both breast and ovarian cancer because she's uninsured. You can learn more about the Support Stacie campaign here at the main web site, on Myspace, here on LJ (supportstacie), and if you're Twitter inclined you can follow @SupportStacie.

The auction is currently mulitfandom -- you can find the list of authors and fandoms here, or feel free to check out the offers avaliable.

The auction starts TONIGHT AT 11:59 CDT. Because of Daylight Savings Time, that is UTC/GMT -5.

There are some really great authors signed up for this (myself excluded, of course), so seriously, go take a look.

What to Expect Around the Auction
Chat-A-Thon Fandoms and Times. I may or may not be in the chats because I have plans on Saturday and probably will be working Sunday and have class on Monday night.


I have three lots up for auction:
One Merlin 2,500 word minimum fic.
One Doctor Who 2,500 word minimum fic.
One Torchwood 2,500 word minimum fic.

And as an added incentive, I'm offering one 100 word drabble for all bids of $10 or more. In any fandom I'm into.

I will also be writing a 1,000 word minimum ficlet for the second-place bidders if they donate their final bid offer to the auction.

Auctions open tonight, 11:59 PM CDT. The Whoniverse bidding closes at 8 PM CDT, while the Merlin lot closes at 10 PM CDT.

Yay I won (digianimegirl) :)

Can I make an offer here for you/teachwriteslash on the Merlin auction. If teach would like to still donate her bid I'd like to offer to let her have the 2500 word minimum, since I also won the Torchwood auction, and I'd take the 1000 word minimum.

I had planned to place my bid at about 10 til to give teach a chance to out bid but the server went down and I kept trying send my bid and eventually kept it up even though I was pretty sure it wouldn't go through, then I was surprised to have it go through at the last minute.

I've also pmed teach to let her know my offer.

Well you can ignore that *sweatdrop*
I'm glad to come in second, but I thought the auction was suppose to end at 10?

*waves!* YAY YOU WON!

And actually, since the server crashed, they extended the bidding so she did win! EVERYONE'S A WINNER!

I'm glad she won, wish they'd said something about if the server crashes extending the deadline, then I wouldn't have made myself look like an idiot, but I got second and can get a 1000 word minimum.

Oh, don't worry, sweetheart. *hugs* You don't look like an idiot, you look like a great friend worried someone else didn't get their lot! *hugs again*

I'm going to PM everyone and get the prompts over there so it's super sekrit. ;)

(God damn it, Musica, pay the fuck attention!)
