This will be the VComm home for The Otalia Virtual Seasons. Hang out here with Team OVS and catch up on what happens to Otalia after Olivia moved back to the FoL.

We will be posting when new episodes are available, and we want to know your thoughts, ideas, and especially comments on the OVS and what you want to see happen with Otalia.

Catch up on the first six episodes here: http://grumpysdesigns.com/otalia_vs/. Episode 7 will be out mid-February!!!

Glad that I found this again. Great writers here and have loved the first 6 episodes.

I just read the first epi The begining... it was awsome!!

All of the episodes of OVS have been wonderful so far. Looking forward to reading (and writing) more.

Ep 7 should be out Feb. 14th (yes, a V-day eppy!). Keep an eye out for it!

Love the episodes of teh Virtual Season.. great writing .. is soooooo nice to have back Otalia :)

Love the episodes!!! I download the pdf files also just to have them accessible anywhere. Thinking of getting an e-reader just for them! Definitely miss seeing Otalia, but the episodes are well-written that I can picture them.

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!!!

Callie,
Just read your recent episode. It was fantastic as usual coming from a group of awesome writers. Cannot wait until the next episode in two weeks. Keep up the good work.

i just read epi 1-7. great just great.

just can't get enough of these two women, how much longer do we have to wait for epi 8-I absolutely adore OTALIA!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you all so much for the wonderful comments and support!

We've got some twists coming as well. Hope you all like it! *wg*

Hey, just wanted to say you guys are doing an absolutely fantastic job!! loving every minute of it!! I can really see those things happening to them. really true to the storyline.

First, thank you very much! No way does Olivia move back to the FoL and right away everything is "just peachy." For me, Natalia had to be the one to make the first move towards real intimacy. The attention to details and prior history was such a pleasant surprise. The SL for episode one has given me the closure I never felt. You can only tell yourself for so long it's a soap so it's to be expected or equate to a Bronte sisters novel. It was 2009 people!!! I look forward to reading (lingering over with a latte) the other episodes. Congrats to the writers. I'm sorry to say Venice the Series has nothing over you guys. Oh how I hope the writing improves for Venice.

Episode 8 "Here Beneath My Skin" by geekgrrllurking is live!!! Whoohoo!

Check it out and please comment. It's about to get VERY interesting in Springfield so let us know what you think.

Just read episode 8 "Here Beneath my Skin" . It was awesome nd love it. Cannot wait for the next episode. We have some awesome writers on this team and always look forward to the next episode in two weeks.

I commented on this elsewhere but I wanted to say it again. Episode 8 just blew me away. The darkness of Olivia's past flashing forward and the trust she has in Natalia to share her pain where so powerful. Couple this with the humor shared between them when they finally feel comfortacle enough to tease each other about the :hot: female runners who pass them by. This Epi just had it all.

I came upon the OVS just in the past 2 weeks and have savored them all. Individual they are well thought out and beautifully written. Together they are a masterpiece and represent some of the best fiction I have ever read....and I am an avid reader. These authors have pulled me in from word one and I don't want to be let go anytime soon. Thank you ladies for the joy your words have brought to me.

Wow, wasted, what an amazing comment! Thank you so much! We're ecstatic that you all love OVS and enjoy continuing going on the Otalia journey with us. Those of us doing OVS have loved doing this so much, not just for you all, but also for ourselves as fans. We love Otalia as much as you all do and hope we can keep delivering to your expectations. FYI, Season 2 is already being planned so we have some great twists and turns coming.

Really enjoying OVS. Nicely done.

I too have been enjoying each episode of OVS and the last was really exceptional. Also wish to thank you for putting them into PDF format as I can download it to my Nook ereader.

I have really enjoyed all the stories thus far....any chance you can let us know when the next one will be?

If you're looking for the OVS episodes in eReader format, check this link: http://www.broodingdetective.com/otalia/virtualseason.html - The files are avail in .html & .pdb (eReader) formats.

If people are interested in pdf (Adobe Reader) format, let me know. It might take me some time to get them converted.

Hey everybody!!!

Episode 9 is up and ready to enjoy!!!

http://grumpysdesigns.com/otalia_vs/season_one/ep_009/s1e9_act_one.htm

We're all so happy Otalians are enjoying OVS. Like geek said, we hope our love for Otalia and GL, in general, comes across in every word we write. We love you all and hope we'll be able to bring you OVS for a long time to come.

Also, if any of you need some free ad promotion for femslash community, website, or event, please email us at otalia_vs@yahoo.com and our designer Grumpybear will get to work on it.

Thanks and hugs!

Callie- Just read your latest episode of OVS. It was awesome. Glad you are keeping the girls alive in this awesome series. Been recommending to all my friends who love the girls too. Keep up the good work to all of the gifted writers. Looking forward to the next episode.

Hey OVS Readers!!!

Let me apologize first of all for the delay in getting this announcement up. It's hard to be focused when a 2 year old is tugging on you saying "Come on, Mama! Come on!"

Also, I need to announce that Episode #10 will be delayed until April 11th due to some uncontrollable RL circumstances. From what I've seen of this episode though, it'll be SOOO worth the wait!

In the meantime, some of you noticed that in Geekgrrl's Episode 8 that we didn't get the suntan lathering moment on San Cristobel. Well, she wanted to make that up to you. Hopefully, it'll help tide you over until April 11th.

Callie- Sorry about the RL issues. Thanks for the nice tide me over mini- episode. Will be looking forward to the next episode,
