Fourth round of story claims are up, let’s definitely make this the last. At the time of this posting, over 20 stories are left. Stories are listed by fandom in alphabetical order and each story is tagged with the story name and a number identifying that story (for my records). These are all great stories that deserve an awesome artist. Please look into your hearts and see if you want to claim any of these. Also, TELL YOUR FRIENDS. Bribe them with hugs and cupcakes. I've just checked with my lawyer and it's perfectly acceptable to grab your artist friends and stuff them in a sack and bring them over here*.

*Actually, my lawyer's words were more like "Don't do that."
