I’ve already done a clean up of the second sandbox. It should be ready to go, but give it a look and see what you think.
Discarded and Feeling Blue
Only have time to skim it right now, but I will say that we need to decide if we're going with "the Author" or "Tara". Based on the last discussion I did revert most of the mentions in sandbox one back to her name. Of course, in some cases it might be better to just rewrite it entirely to not mention her.

Whatever you decide on "Tara" vs. "the author" is okay by me. I get the rationale for leaving her name in, as she's arguably a character as well. I'll support either decision.

Discarded and Feeling Blue
I'll run through both sandboxes at some point and see if I can cut down on how many times she's mentioned. While she is a character, looking back it does feel a bit weird to keep referencing her instead of just explaining what happens in the story.

Just had a thought: Should we remove the Dramatic Readings and Meta sections from Funny.My Immortal for not being part of the fic proper?

Yeah, we should.

Tara Gilesbie has a creator page now, so I think a link to it should be placed on the page.
The creator page has been cut because she is only known for making one fic, and it was controversial.
~Bolt DMC:
I was about to ask for a swap once I skimmed back through the sandbox and made some edits, only to remember that I cut the sandbox halfway to avoid a headache! Past me didn't want to do the entire thing at once. So before we ask for a swap, we need to clean up the second half and combine them.
