The Roll Calls are weekly listing of stories written at io9 by members of the community. We have two writing initiatives: #ThursdayTales and #SaturdayShortStories and each one is chock full of original writing by io9 community members, otherwise known as Niners. As of 20 August there are 155 free short stories by Niners in the Canon, and all can be searched in the Nineosphere. Enjoy, and if you like something, leave a comment for the author. They work hard for our free entertainment!

I’m behind for yesterday’s and last week’s #SaturdayShortStories Roll Calls

I’m behind for this week’s #ThursdayTales Roll Call

I apologize very much for the lateness.  I was very sick last week so I managed the TTRC but didnt finish the SSSRC.  This week I was getting caught up but suddenly a pile of stuff fell upon me and I haven’t finished.  I am working on it and I had hoped to finish them up today but it just didn’t happen that way because people needed me to help them do things and so I did.  Not making excuses, just cascading things caused a problem.

Hopefully I will have this up by Monday evening.  I hope.  I have a day full of stuff tomorrow but I’m surely gonna try.  If not, then it will be Tuesday at the latest.  Again, I apologize very much and I know some people have been asking, and I did dawdle a bit but it wasn’t nearly enough to cause this kind of backup.  I don’t think I really accounted for other life activities (when this started I didn’t really have anything else to do but that totally (temporarily) changed and I’ve never been good at planning things or accounting for contingencies so here we are.

On the plus side:

This Roll Call will include 32 stories.  That’s a lot of reading.  A lot.  Believe me, I know!

If you want to check the stories out they are listed at io9 under #ThursdayTales and #SaturdayShortStories and if you enjoy one or have constructive feedback, please leave a comment for the author, it will be much appreciated.  I’m making a schedule.  We’ll see if I can’t get these things out on time in the future AND get some FridayFlash written.

Thanks for being so patient.
