Hi Guys!

We proudly bring you DOPAMINE’s February Prince of Tennis Dream Novels! February marks the debut of one of our newest writers, Shi-Chan! Please lend her your support everyone. Three more writers will debut later on this March! You can find their profiles in the Team DOPAMINE page.

But before that, we missed one Christmas-themed Dream Novel when we updated before:

As always, a special thank you to CrazyGirlOfManyNames for proofreading majority of this month’s Dream Novels and to Wanna.Be for proofing a couple and coding them all! You guys are my superstars. Thank you so, so much.

I’ve taken a look at the proofreader applications and will process them sometime this March. I’ve also gotten a couple of coder applications and will take a look at them too. I’m sorry if it’s taking so long, real life gets the most of me, as always. For now, please enjoy the February updates!

Writer and editor applications are now OVER. I’ve accepted a grand total of three new writers into the team. I’ll announce who they are as soon as details are finalized. All qualified editor applicants have been sent an editor’s test. Deadline is February 19, 11:59:PM at GMT timezone, guys.

For now, we’re looking for a Dream Novel coder who could help Wanna.Be out. If you don’t know how to create JavaScript prompts, don’t worry, we’re going to train you. All we need is someone who can code HTML documents by hand and not save Word documents as HTML files (doing this creates a messy script).

To apply, please send me anything you’ve coded. Fan fiction, whole web sites, anything as long as it demos your coding abilities. Workload is a mere 7-10 or so dream novels per month. Interested parties, please email me at mitsuiselphie[@]gmail.com.

December updates are ready, peeps. Yes yes, it’s February. I know! But I’ve been struggling even just to sleep. It’s been almost a year since I last posted a DN (Yuushi’s Diamonds, Diamonds, Diamonds), and believe me, I’m about to go nuts! But anyways, I reckon things will settle down soon enough, most particularly when I don’t need to work as hard for the money anymore. Say, sometime around April or May. But for now, please forgive me my shortcomings and enjoy these supposed-to-be-Xmas-updates.

I’d like to thank CrazyGirlOfManyNames for proofreading the December updates and Wanna.Be for coding them! Thanks so much, guys! And to everyone, enjoy!

Heylo, Wanna.Be here!

Okay, Okay! This is my first update so forgive me if anything is out of order! Our lovely leader has been trying to teach me how to update the site. Sadly, I’m a poor pupil. Heh! Anyway, within our update we have two Kiriban Requested DN’s. And while on that topic MitsuiSelphie informed me that she is in the middle of writing Kiriban Requested DN’s for both Lilo and VoiDreamer! She hasn’t been feeling well lately but says they will be up very SOON! I think that’s all…I suppose I should just get to the update, huh?

These are the a little late but here they are! Seven ready to read DN’s! Seven’s a lucky number, isn’t it? Hope you all enjoy!

Thanks a lot to all the readers for… well… reading!! ^.^

Yes peeps, I’m alive. I’ve ran into a bit of trouble — okay BIG trouble — since last time I posted. But I’m not dying and DOPAMINE isn’t going to die anytime soon. We’re just a bit delayed because November was a very, VERY bad month for the team and for me, in particular.

The good news is, I’m taking time off of work from the 17th which means you’ll be seeing my first Dream Novel since May this year. I plan to work writing tenipuri Dream Novels into my schedule on 2008 but I reckon it won’t be as frequent as I would like it to be since I’m currently the family breadwinner. I’m sure you guys will understand and will enjoy the teams’ PoT dream novels just as much.

With that said, we’ll have more than one update this December, of course. The first one, before the 20th, would be the updates meant for November. We’re hoping we’ll get the December updates up by the day after Christmas or so. I’ll also try to update one more time before my work resumes on January (you’ll understand what I mean when you see the PoT dream novels I wrote for the Kiriban requests).

I’d like to welcome all the new addition to the community. Please feel free to interact here. And yes, this IS an open community, you may send me your PoT Dream Novels to be posted. As someone who honed her writing skills through fan fiction, I encourage everyone to find and explore their creativity.

For submissions, questions and even writing advice solicitations, you can reach me at mitsuiselphie[@]gmail.com. I’ll reply ASAP when I get your tenipuri dream novels but I may not always have the time to guide you through the writing process or dole out writing advice. That doesn’t mean I’ll ignore you completely, it just means that it might take some time before I can send out a response.

As a parting advice, to those who’re interested in writing, vocabulary is of prime importance. And so, I leave you with our word for the day:

ap·pel·la·tive

1.	a descriptive name or designation, as Bald in Jackal the Bald.

2.	a common noun.

–adjective

3.	designative; descriptive.

4.	tending toward or serving for the assigning of names: the appellative function of some primitive rites.

5.	pertaining to a common noun.

See you guys next week!

Hi kitty-chan, welcome to DOPAMINE! I’m slightly better now and would attend to finishing my Dream Novels in the next few days. Please expect the November updates to be up by December 5. And get well soon to you too!

Thanks Crazy and Wanna.Be for the well wishes!

Please do drop DeVeLicious of Endless-Dreamers a line too because she’s even more ill than I am. Get well soon Dev! I can’t live without chatting with you at least once a week T_T

Oh yes, to those who’ve forgotten, November is the Kiriban month! So we’ll be seeing the dream novels for Lilo’s and VoiDreamer’s requests. December, of course, is our Christmas-themed month. Don’t forget that DOPAMINE still welcomes guest PoT dream novels from our community so if you have some Christmas-themed dream novel ideas, send them to me by around December 15-20. The earlier, the better. ♥

Oh yes, do you guys want a forum? TELL ME so I can set one up.

DOPAMINE Updates for November will be posted sometime around December 3-5. I apologize about the delay. I’ve gotten quite sick and only have the strength to get through work each day. Anyhow, while you’re waiting for the new DNs, you might want to drop by Nihon Watch and read all about Japan. See you there!
