Okay, I think I've got this. Super shorts, I've read. Oh, and followed by chocolate chip cookies! (Then watched "Hanzel and Gretal: Witch Hunters" - Very disappointed. Only watch it if you like bloody death scenes.)

QUOTES:
1. Bakasi "The Lunkheads"
2. Bobbart "Santa's Helper"
3. RodStewFan "Paint Fight"
4. Lynn SM "The (Semi) Annual Safety Seminar"
5. VirginiaR (or ME) "For a High Flying Time, Call..."
6. Queen of Capes (aka Mary Potts) "Living the Dream"
7. Lonnie "Afternoon in the Life of a Working Mom"
8. Ultra Lucille "Strange Revelexations"
9. Annie B "Terrible Teen Paranormal Romance"
10. ??? No idea. Morgana's "A Lovely Smile"?
11. Um... Isn't that a quote from canon? No idea.

EXCERPTS:

1-5. Same as Quotes
6. Sticking with my quotes guess.
7. Same as Quotes
8. Almost changed it to Mouserocks "I hate cheese" but it's not, so sticking with my quotes guess.
9. Same as Quotes
10. Nope, isn't Morgana's story. Completely blanking.
11. Another quote from canon. ?? So, again, no idea.

RECOMMENDATIONS:
Will come back later with these, have to run.

So, far:

Mouserocks: I hate Cheese
Ultra Lucille: Camembert

My memory is foggy at the best. I needed help to remember most of the titles and authors. Hope I can do better in the next quizzes.

#11. "Partnership, Friendship, & Love..." by LMA (Laura)

(and sadly, I didn't recognize it right away ...)

Laura

I'm back with more recommendations...

Mouserocks rocked this year's super short category (and the short category, for which I'm currently prepping the quiz). Go, Mouse! So, other than the one I recommended above I'd like to add her: "Driving Lessons" and "Aftershocks" (most of the others on my list, I just realized, were eligible for last year's Kerths).

Bakasi's "The Lunkheads"
Ultra Lucille's "Strange ReveLexations"
Queen of Capes' "Encounter in the Park" & "Living the Dream" (Despite her thinking it wasn't WAFFy).

This is going to be a bad year for Kerth quizzes for me. Usually I can at least do well on the relatively short stories, but this year I didn't even have time to read many of them. In fact, I only recognized one.

The one I recognized was (no surprise here) my own "The (Semi-)Annual Safety Seminar." At least I got it from the quote.

Joy,

I have to agree! This is going to be a bad year for me on Kerth quizzes. Rats!

Oh, thanks for thinking that #10 was mine! Definitely not A Lovely Smile!

Questions

Nada. Wow, zilch-for-eleven. A lot sounds familiar, though...

Excerpts

3. Paint Fight by RodStewFan

Wow. I feel terrible. This is a banner way to start out the quizzes. Gosh, hope the next ones will go better. I know I've read a lot, but I can't for the life of me remember. Oh well. Next set hopefully will go better. They're just... they're so short, and there's so many....

Thanks for the quiz anyway!

Thanks, Virginia. When I can't get the chance to actually work on a full length fic, I try to churn out a short about once a month or so. I doubt any of them "rocked" due to the lateness at which I write most of them, but thanks anyway And yeah, most of the things I posted early in the year were leftovers from the year before. (I finally got my act together this year-- I am up to date on stories to Archive! ) I hope to keep that up through 2014.

I think everybody's recommended the ones I can think of, though I'm sure I'll think of more to add eventually. Now that I'm seeing some of the answers, I'm doing a fairly decent impression of this:

EDIT: So I was double checking a couple of my stories because Virginia mentioned that several of mine are layovers from last year's stories that didn't get Archived in time. I have no idea where else to post this, but here's the ones that may look like they're from this year but actually would NOT qualify:

Timing is Everything
The Tooth of the Matter
Scientific Impossibility
Stealing Second
Kill Your Heroes
Go For Superman
Bad Guys Always Have a Plan
Blue Skies

Yeah, that should be it, for all the archived ones that may say it was submitted around March of 2013 but in actuality were posted in 2012. Just to help clear things up.

I've never done one of these and I haven't read a lot of stories, but I did recognize one.
