Greetings, Spuffy fam!
We’d like to pop in and let everyone know we’ve added another admin to the Sunnydale After Dark team. Everyone please welcome Grief Counseling! (AND wish her a very happy birthday! 
)
She really needs no introduction as she’s been a fixture in the Spuffy fic community for so many years. We all know her as an incredible writer and artist, but she’s also been instrumental in developing this archive. Grief Counseling is the creator of all our adorable site emojis. She’s designed graphics and skins for us (check out her latest, Scarlet Night!). She’s helped us troubleshoot issues and brainstorm events and, in general, been one of our loudest, proudest cheerleaders. We love her to pieces!
We’re so thankful she’s agreed to join in and officially admin with us! We’re also thankful for this kind community full of people who always seem to step up and support each other. Keep cheering each other on!
Much love.

Whaaaat, I totally missed this! CONGRATS and YAY GRIEF!!!
Yay for us! I’d follow Grief anywhere!
Ah, I remember the day she dropped into the random like balloon filled with sparkles. Or something like that. I feel like our Grief was th forerunner of this third wave of BtVS fiction. I also remember think what do damp spoons have to do with vampires?
Hahaha, Niamh!! Dampers and spoons are piano parts. One stops or allows sound, and the other helps move the key up and down. I used to rebuild them with my dad, and all the moving parts reminded me of a typewriter. I felt so clever back then!
Thank you so much, you guys!!!
So excited to work with Grief! She's one of my favorite authors and artists and now... I get to say she's one of my favorite people, too!
