Donations still needed for December

Thanks to your donations November is paid; we still need donations for December. HASA is a fee-free Web site, run for the enjoyment of quality JRRT fanfiction. We want to be able to keep these stories and resources online and accessible. HASA depends on member & reader donations to pay hosting fees. The hosting fee pays for the dedicated server we need to provide the features and fun visitors love - stories, comments, forums, alerts, challenges and more. Currently our account is at -$141. We should not be running this far negative for this long. Thanks to recent donations we're less behind; we still need to get positive.

Our PayPal account has been updated and there are now three ways to donate. HASA now accepts subscriptions:


*One time donations - this is what we've always had
*Monthly donations - set up a monthly recurring donation in amounts from $5 to $25 dollars.
*Annual donations - set up a recurring annual donation in amounts from $15 to $50 dollars.

Donation buttons are on the home page (one-time donation only), all story list pages and on the Donations page.

If you haven't donated yet to help support HASA, please consider doing so; any support will be timely and greatly appreciated. HASA gets a lot of traffic and offers many great stories and features.

If you're a little short on spare change at the moment, donations of time are always appreciated. There's an archive full of stories just waiting for comments, authors who would dearly love an email complimenting them on their work, challenges that need entries, playlists that need to be created, and forums begging for discussions. If you are a reviewer, check out a story today. If you aren't a reviewer, no better time than now to sign up. If you are an author, please consider donating a new story.

Thanks for enjoying HASA!
