No, no, NO! Not that one! ANYTHING but that one!
Yea, sure, you can use it.
--Michael Bard, Oct 1/2008
- Given that it's going to cost ~$20 a copy to give one to the authors, I voluntarily give up my free copy. I will buy it to support Shifti. I strongly recommend other authors do the same.
- --Michael Bard, Oct 7/2008
Yes. I give full permission to use my story 'Gaia's Rain' in your Anthology.
Felix Sagittarius
Aka James Wolf 10/1 2008
Thank you both! ^^

Meh. Feel free, so long as the publication process doesn't screw up the formatting. --Viqsi 20:47, 1 October 2008 (EDT)
Go for it. Cubist 01:07, 2 October 2008 (EDT)
I hereby give permission to use my story in exchange for a contributor copy of the anthology. --Xodiac 14:50, 2 October 2008 (PDT)
Hiya! I'd be happy to see Hoof Beat in print - for my part, since this is a fund raiser, a courtesy copy (or two, :grin:) of the book would be all the payment I would look for. Hope it works out! --Bob Stein 16:30, 2 October 2008 (EDT)
Huh. No objections to using 501st, but I think I've written better ones more recently. Maybe the Perils of Voice Acting. I'll see if I can draw something related and scan it. --Joysweeper 22:16, 2 October 2008 (EDT)
- Sudden thought - 501st is borderline fan fiction. Lucasarts mostly ignores fan fiction, but a couple of years back there was a lot of trouble when someone wrote a fan novel and put it on Amazon. I'd rather not stir anything up. Maybe this story should be pulled. --Joysweeper 12:34, 7 October 2008 (EDT)
- Potential is there, always…
- This is clearly not "Star Wars"
- Where it does touch on Lucas Arts/Lucas Films licensed material it is edge-on - ie: it doesn't do so in any manner that could be construed as anything but deferential
- I don't think we have anything that could replace it - and besides, this story is one of the few that received multiple nominations, so it is, quite clearly, one of the "Best of Shifti"
- However… If you feel that strongly about it I will discuss replacements for it with the rest of the administrative staff. -- ShadowWolf 22:41, 7 October 2008 (EDT)
- Hmm. You should have seen the fan rage about that novel; people really thought Lucasarts was going to come down on fanfiction in general. And my story doesn't have just a few name drops or comparisons... I don't feel strongly about it, no, I'm just wary.
- Guess I'll follow Bard's example and say no copy for me, thanks, but I would like to see scans of front and back cover. What are you thinking about in terms of cover art? --Joysweeper 23:07, 7 October 2008 (EDT)
- The cover is being done by Craven and is planned to be a version of DaVinci's "The Vitruvian Man" showing someone in mid-TF. -- ShadowWolf 06:12, 8 October 2008 (EDT)
- After discussion among the staff here, we've decided to err on the side of caution and run with your suggested replacement, "The Perils of Voice Acting". -- ShadowWolf 09:07, 11 October 2008 (EDT)
You have permission to use "Public Domain" for this collection. However, if I can sell it elsewhere, I reserve the right. I probably won't, mind you. But... Phil Geusz
Sure, you can use "Sisters Three" as long as Jon approves; he's in the story so he should have some say. CGM
- I don't mind the story getting included if we make some changes to the names of the characters. --Buck 22:03, 3 October 2008 (EDT)
You may use my story "A Long Forgotten Madness" in your Best of Shifti book. I'm honored that you would so ask. --MatthiasRat 21:40, 3 October 2008 (EDT)
I have no problem with you using "Swift of Foot and Hoof", though someone might want to give it a quick edit first. I'm sure that I ran into the occasional "pronoun trouble" as Sylvester used to say.--Eirik 10:51, 4 October 2008 (EDT)
