I was asked to make icons for the site, and then asked to post them here, so here they are, shareable to all!

The intent was for the shanks to be for art, and the reading ones for stories, but nobody's constrained to abide by that *g*

Art for Scar Tissue by Neevebrody )
 
 
 
Scar Tissue
AUTHOR: [info]dustandroses
CHARACTERS/PAIRING: Keller/Alvarez, O'Reily/Alvarez
RATING/WARNINGS: NC-17, Dom/sub, Rough Sex, Het, Violence
WORD COUNT: 83,700
SPOILERS: Through Season Five, Episode Four: Next Stop Valhalla
NOTE: Scar Tissue is a follow-up piece to my series Alvarez Gets Blindsided. However, it is not necessary to have read that series to read this story.
SUMMARY: Using his past Dom/sub relationship with Miguel Alvarez as a lure, Chris Keller mounts a campaign to lure Ryan O'Reily into continuing their partnership after theyíve completed their 'fandango'. O'Reily is aware that things are never that simple with Keller around, but as careful as he is, he's slowly drawn into Keller's trap. Caught between the two, and knowing that he can't count on Keller, Alvarez begins to hope he can find a friend in O'Reily.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS: Thank you to [info]trillingstar, whom I love being partners with. Her ideas always inspire me--even if I make a big comment that said: I was out of ideas. Thanks, [info]trillingstar. You are the wind beneath my wings. I hope my wife doesn't read that last part.

Just Another Day in Paradise
AUTHOR: [info]starkiller

Art for Almost There by Trillingstar )

Almost There
AUTHOR: [info]ozsaur
CHARACTERS/PAIRING: Beecher/Keller
RATING/WARNINGS: NC-17. AU. Kid!fic. But that doesn't mean that Chris and Toby are angels. Bad stuff happens, too. Not to the kids!
WORD COUNT: 52,500
SUMMARY: Beecher served three years in prison. He made it through the pragging, the violence, humiliation and despair. Now, he wants a normal life. He wants to be a good father to his kids, but he knows he isn't ready. What happened in Oz continues to effect his life in spite of his struggles to put it all behind him.

Bonnie wasn't supposed to get pregnant and she wasn't supposed to die leaving Chris in a situation that he is ill-equipped to handle. He wants the freedom to walk away, go back to only being responsible for himself. Holding down a legitimate job and being a full time dad isn't what he planned for his life.

SQUEE. I am so *psyched* for all of the art and stories on our very own site. OZsome.

We are having technical difficulties so we are extending the final deadline for Artwork to October 5th. If you are an artist and you need a few more days to get your work completed, you now have it! But please do have your artwork submitted to rustlerdude @ gmail dot com as soon as possible.

The website will go live on October 13th. That will give Rustler plenty of time to put everything together. It will also give our pinch hitters some breathing room.

We apologize for the delays, I know everyone is very excited about the stories and artwork coming out. Many of you will be pleased to know that two of the stories went well beyond the 25,000 minimum. Waaaaay beyond! You have some exciting reading ahead of you.

I can't say anything about the artwork because it all goes directly to Rustler - I can say that there will be plenty of art pieces to admire.

This is our first year so there are a lot of growing pains. We've had a few challenges along the way, but I'm very pleased with what we've accomplished. We are already making plans for next year.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask - either here or in email. You can contact me at ausar @ netdoor dot com.

Thank you for your patience!

I would like to know if anyone has video clips of Lee and Chris (mostly of Lee) outside of OZ (and SVU). Anything will do.

Thank you.
