So am I getting this right, Susi: You converted your file into html, then did the italics and bold manually and then sent the file to Schmiezi? Or the other way around, first the italics and bold and then you converted it into html?
 

Italics and bold manually, then converted to HTML, converted to BBCode to check in here if it worked. Then I sent the HTML file to Schmiezi because you cannot save the BBCode version.

Okay, did it. Seems to work. So I'll send the html file to Schmiezi now. Thanks for all the advice, ladies!

What if you copy the BBCode version, Susi, and paste it on a document for Schmiezi to copy?

... but there may be some new players now. It’s okay. The East Wind takes us all in the end.

It is really not much work if you do it this way. Takes about two minutes.

However, I had done italics and bold manually so I am not sure if this really works. But the line breaks are in there which is important. I sent the HTML file to Schmiezi so she only has to paste it into the BBCode converter and then put it in here. This way it should work. 

First:
http://document.online-convert.com/convert-to-html

and then:

You're not working with the source code so you can't just throw it into a .txt.

You got mine, right? I hope the formatting worked out correctly. Thank goodness for Liberty and her fabulous beta skills. She claims to be new at it, but she did a wonderful job I really hope my recipient likes the fic.

Wow, people I'm so excited. I want to know what everyone has come up with. Can't wait.

Me and my story spent so much time together last week. I miss it now .

The only reason I'm not missing mine is that I've already started writing the sequel.

I can't wait to see what you've all have come up with, too.

Schmiezi, are you going to let us know on which days you will post a story?
Since we are not 24 participants, we won't get one every day, right? But next monday will bring us the first fic...?

I love the hopeful subtext I read into that comment. 

Sounds absolutely great, Schmiezi.
