Take a good look at the chibis on the chibi banner above! These four couples are all the BL couples of the Original Characters created by the authors of Scribble Hub. Each chibi couple is featured on the bottom of the Newsletter with the link to the story they came from. These chibis were made by the group effort of our brave volunteers and contributors!
Big thanks to tiaf (author's own drawing), HansTrondheim , Jolliapplegirl (author's own drawing)and Queenfisher for making this happen \(*~*)/.
Likewise, big thanks to yansusustories for helping to write the actual articles in both the Newsletter and the following Reading Lists! Thank you everyone for pitching in!

If you post in the SHF thread, we will send you an invite to the private BL room we have on the site and will be able to interact on BL topics outside of the general forum sight ^^. Can't wait to see you all there!

The BL Short Story Anthology Begins Releasing!
Also, please feel free to join in on the fun competition among the commenters of the short story entries!!
In short, in order to promote more commenting and reader engagement on the anthology entries -- we came up with this fun little BL-themed quiz anyone can take.
The quiz has 10 questions and puts you in one of the 4 teams at the end.
Each team member can make comments under the entries in this anthology (legit entries -- not this chapter, okay??). Each comment garners points depending on the length and quality of the comment. By the end of the anthology release, the team with the highest amount of points, wins the comment battle of BL_Palace teams!

New BL Releases
It‘s the dawn of a new day or rather a new month. And you know what else is new? These BL releases, of course! Better pounce on them now to make sure you won‘t seem old-school when people start talking about them en masse!
Some of the novels will be marked with a heart ♥ and some with a star ★ ! The hearts are the authors who support and participate in our Newsletter, so we are allowed to gather news from their profiles and chapter announcements, while the stars mark the books with more than 10 chapters or completed series/oneshots — so binge-worthy material!
