 Just a little bit ago (over a year! *cringe*) I said I'd be adding 
 all the fics on UCSL to the links page.  Sadly, this is untrue.  
 There are so many fics there that I am loath to use the clumsy Y!G 
 link system to enter them all, not to mention the impossibility of 
 keeping all the series together and in their proper order.
 
 So I made a links page of my very own!  And I've uploaded it to the 
 BWW Files page!  (The next email you get should be the Y!G auto-
 notification system telling you the exact address.)
 
 Now, there are a few things to be aware of.
 
 1) All files are in .txt files.  This means that they have the barest 
 of formatting and are not sized to fit your screen.  That's the 
 limitation of all their stories being pulled from a mailing list like 
 this one, and not from nice HTML files.
 
 2) While there are some fics that aren't on any of the usual sites, 
 there are many repeats from sites like IKOLY, A Slayer/A Hacker, 
 Wiffy Dream-verse, NHA, Mystic Muse, Slashydale, The Scrolls, etc.  
 But they are included in case you haven't been to all of those sites 
 or you haven't read them recently.  Besides, there are many overlaps 
 between those sites themselves but, hey, more sites means more 
 visibility for our 'ship which is always of the good.  Also, they may 
 be slightly different versions from the ones on the common Wiffy 
 sites; I didn't compare them.
 
 3) Not all stories are of Wiffy goodness and happiness.  Don't expect 
 every story to be fluffy and light.  (Mad Hamlet is on there.)
 
 4) Quite a few have others involved as well.  From multi-partner 
 relationships to good old mindless group sex, I have limited this to 
 fics containing direct mention of Willow and Buffy having physical 
 contact together.  Admittedly, in some of these, such contact is 
 quite minor.
 
 5) Not every story has the Wiffy consumated or even communicated.  
 Sometimes it's only one girl who feels that way.  But a clear desire 
 from one for the other was enough to get the fic on this list.  (This 
 group is Buffy *Wants* Willow, not Buffy *Gets* Willow.  Wanting is 
 enough.)
 
 6) Both Buffy and Willow are not in all fics.  A few have Faith-in-
 Buffy's-body fooling Willow, and a few others have Willow and the 
 Buffybot and Willow is only fooling herself.  But it is Willow 
 believing or pretending that she is with Buffy.  Willow wanting Buffy 
 may be almost canon, but these fics make it explicit so they were 
 included.
 
 Still, hopefully there's something on there you haven't read before.  
 I know I found a few new fics.
 
 Happy reading!
 
 Your fellow 'shipper
 Howard
