Dear Gabrielle and Lily, Yes, in the case of Lily her health is of the most importance. At the same time, as a mod, either one of you could have told us about Lily's situation (or told us yourself if it is Lily) so we were not all in the dark on why everything has come to a standstill. A mass email or a post like this takes less than five minutes and would have prevented the anger from people in this group. Plus, as a writer I work in fandom with a certain amount of nervousness, for I, and someone else on this list have had stories stolen or plagiarized. I know that it is my own paranoia but it is still a strange and quirky concern that does come up once in awhile. But yes, Lily's health is the most important thing, like I stated, but better communication about the situation dealing with Lily to the group would have prevented all of this.
Lily is still in the hospital. I am not a mod of this, I am a friend of her's who has just recently got her password so I can let people know what happened. Seeing as she only recently woke up, I don't see how that could have happened sooner. This post came as soon as I figured out how to do it. I do not have my own LJ. I have been spending as much time at the hospital with her as I can and that is more important to me right now. You should just be happy she can even remember this exchange in the state she's in now.
Oh wow. My best wishes for her. I hope the emails stop now that people know the reason of her absence.
It'll just have to wait, since you're not really in a situation to figure it all out. Maybe at some point Lily'll be able to explain what has to be done, but like you said this has no priority whatsoever. We probably have as little insight as you as to where the stories are located or what the posting order is, especially since the last time I heard there were still some stories that needed to be sent in.
Please give Lily my wishes for a smooth recovery! And that she does not worry about the exchange. There are more important things to deal with in our lives than Harry Potter. Anyone who thinks otherwise is appalling and very inconsiderate.

As for the exchange itself, I can wait. I'm just glad to know what's happened. Thank you for letting us know.
